WinRT isn't the most awful in the world to use from, say, Rust because there are auto-generated bindings, but I agree that C++ can be awful.
WinRT was great, back when using it via .NET Native and C++/CX.
It was like Delphi and C++ Builder kind of experience, then they killed the whole experience.
Rust with windows-rs is hardly any better, and coming from the same folks that killed C++/CX, with false promises at CppCon 2017, I don't have great hopes for it. They will jump ship again after a new shiny.
