Research direction

No files or tests are named in the issue. Start by locating the UWP capabilities implementation and identifying which offerings currently require compiled sources; then determine how the existing build and consumption paths expose them. Done means the UWP capabilities are header-only and remain portable and easy to consume.

Description

Because Arcana's UWP offerings aren't header-only
@syntheticmagus If memory serves, it shouldn't be too much work to make it header-only, which would also make it considerably more portable and easy to consume.
