Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. First clarify the WinGet metadata dependency and locate the existing WinGet source-search entry point; done should include searching a source for DSC resources once resource metadata is available.

Description

Issue-Feature
Description of the new feature / enhancement

I want to be able to search for DSC resources in a WinGet source.

Note: There are dependencies on WinGet adding the metadata to identify resources available in packages.
I'll link the issues here after this repository is open-source.
