FluentTerminal "Toggle Windows" into systray

I like the idea using ScrLck to toggle the terminal, but if it is used to hide the window it would still be found in the alt+tab like, I think toggling it into systray might be better.

Keep in mind that not all keyboards have ScrLck. My laptop, for example, does not.

That doesn't matter, ScrLck can be replaced with any key, the thing is to toggle it into the tray not task bar

Not at the moment due to UWP restrictions, but Project Reunion might enable this some day

while I've seen different hacks making it possible I agree it's better to wait for a proper way to handle this

With the newly updated Windows App SDK would it be possible to be implemented now?

Yes, but it would mean to rewrite quite some parts of the app.

I don't think that should be an excuse not to do it. I feel like adopting the new SDK will have myriad benefits that can be leveraged in the future. It might even allow us to tackle https://github.com/felixse/FluentTerminal/issues/501 and https://github.com/felixse/FluentTerminal/issues/831 @Felix Seidl Why not outline the work that would need to be done and people can tackle the work as time permits?

Not saying I wont do it eventually. I already did some experiments in the winui3 branch. (Launching shell processes in the app directly and basic one way communication with the new webview)

What we will definitively lose with the current version of the new SDK is acrylic/mica background. I think this will annoy quite some people
