In plain English

TubaWinUi3 is a free Windows app that bundles 82 popular hardware diagnostic tools into one clean, modern launcher. Instead of hunting down and installing individual utilities like CPU-Z, GPU-Z, CrystalDiskMark, or AIDA64 separately, you get them all in one place, organized by category and ready to launch with a single click. The app acts as a unified dashboard for PC hardware testing. It automatically scans a Tools folder, displays everything by category (processor, graphics card, memory, storage, peripherals, etc.), and lets you search or bookmark your favorites. It also reads your system's hardware info directly, CPU, RAM, GPU, drives, and display details, so you can see your specs without opening a separate program. You can launch any tool as an administrator, create desktop shortcuts, and switch between light and dark themes. It also checks for updates automatically when you start it. This is built for PC enthusiasts, IT technicians, system builders, and anyone who frequently tests or benchmarks computer hardware. If you've ever assembled a PC and needed to stress-test the CPU, check memory stability, verify a monitor's color range, or benchmark a new SSD, this puts all those tools at your fingertips. The project is a modern rebuild of a well-known Chinese hardware utility collection called "Tuba Toolbox," replacing the original's aging interface with a native Windows interface that supports both standard Intel/AMD processors and ARM64 devices like Snapdragon laptops. A few things stand out about how it's put together. The interface code is open source under GPL-3.0, while the bundled third-party tools remain under their own licenses. It's built using Microsoft's WinUI 3 framework and .NET 10, which gives it the polished look and feel of a first-party Windows app. Developers can also extend it by adding their own built-in tools through a straightforward plugin system, choosing from dialog, background task, progress task, or instant action formats depending on what the tool needs to do.

Copy-paste prompts

Prompt 1
I want to build a WinUI 3 plugin for TubaWinUi3 that shows real-time CPU temperature in a dialog. Walk me through the plugin structure and what APIs I need to hook into.
Prompt 2
Help me add a new hardware diagnostic tool to TubaWinUi3's Tools folder and make sure it appears under the correct category in the launcher.
Prompt 3
I'm running TubaWinUi3 on an ARM64 Snapdragon laptop. Which of the 82 bundled tools are likely to work natively, and how should I handle x86-only tools?
Prompt 4
Create a background task plugin for TubaWinUi3 that monitors disk health using SMART data and alerts the user if any drive reports degraded status.
