Fluent Store

Downloading apps from the internet is something that we all do, and sometimes, it's more complicated than usual. Whether it is finding a download link on the developer's site to not being sure whether the file is malware-free, some programs can be difficult to get.

The thought that there should be an app store for most Windows apps has probably crossed your mind at least once, and Microsoft certainly thought as much. The Microsoft Store is alright, but what if you wanted more? Fluent Store incorporates Microsoft's offering, plus WinGet and UWP Community sources, all in a modern-looking, intuitive program.

As it's supposed to act as a frontend for various package managers and app stores, this software features a modern design coupled with an intuitive interface, making the program accessible and welcoming to everyone.

When clicking an app, you'll be brought to its page, where you'll be able to find out more details about it. The page design is especially eye-catching, as the header and screenshots promptly inform you what the program looks like, and everything is neatly structured. Whether it is an app from the Microsoft Store or the UWP Community, users have a wider variety to choose from.

A helpful feature of this software is its ability to download installers from the Microsoft Store. Microsoft's solution automatically installs the apps after finishing the download, without allowing you to access the installer file. You can rest assured knowing that won't happen here: users can freely choose to handle the installation themselves.

Users can also create a Fluent Store Social account and organize app collections that they can share. As this is an app in early release, lots of new things are to come soon: supporting GitHub and Chocolatey releases is in the works, so things are looking promising.

Fluent Store is thus an app to keep an eye on: the way it manages to be a frontend to accommodate apps from the UWP Community, Microsoft Store, and Winget is ambitious, and it's off to a great start already.
