I want a wizard to aid in the creation of a manifest.

Initially this could work like the PowerShell script in the Tools directory. The longer term vision would be depending on the installer type.

If I have an MSIX installer, it likely contains the majority of the metadata so a user wouldn't have to provide much more than the URL to the installer.

We are working on this tool now. It accepts a URL and optionally an existing package ID. It will also take GitHub credentials to create the fork, and submit the PR.
