Core Focus

Steam Library Detection

The app can detect Steam installations and work from the existing library setup instead of forcing manual path management every time.

Shortcut Creation Workflow

It focuses on a practical desktop utility flow: pick an installed game, then generate the shortcuts you want for faster access.

Windows 11-Style UI

The interface leans into Fluent-style WPF presentation with rounded surfaces, theme support, and a cleaner native desktop feel.

Delivery and Use

Desktop and Start Menu Shortcuts

Designed around generating shortcuts where they are actually useful for day-to-day launching and organization.

Installer-Friendly Distribution

The project includes installer-oriented tooling so the application can be packaged for real Windows distribution instead of staying as a dev-only build.

Windows-Focused Utility App

This is a purpose-built desktop tool rather than a web wrapper, so the project is optimized around local Steam installs and native Windows UX.

Build Notes

1Targets net9.0-windows with WPF enabled for a native desktop application stack.
2Uses Steam-related libraries for reading and working with Steam shortcut and library data.
3Supports installer packaging paths including Inno Setup for distributable builds.
