Sustainability & The Microsoft Store 💰

FluentFlyout is and always will be free and open-source. You can download the latest builds from the Releases tab or compile the project yourself to access the full feature set without restrictions.

Maintaining a project of this scale takes time and effort. To support ongoing development, the Microsoft Store version offers a convenient way to install the app and includes a few optional features unlockable via a small payment (€2.99, varies by region).

• Microsoft Store version: provides automatic background updates and one-click installation. A small set of features is unlocked with a one-time purchase to help fund development.
• GitHub version: Completely free, fully featured, and open-source. The only trade-off is that updates and installation must be done manually.

Thank you for your support and understanding!
