A few weeks ago at Build 2023, Microsoft officially announced the launch of the new Dev Home app. It was made to be a centralized place for Microsoft software developers. The app also included some new artistic touches from the team at Microsoft Design. On May 26, the team posted on Twitter about their work on Dev Home.
The new work includes an expanded color palette with warm tones to complement our Windows blue & coding-inspired textures throughout the visuals for added depth.
Today, the Microsoft Design team announced on Twitter that its new creations for Dev Home have been adapted and can now be used on your PC desktop in a new series of wallpapers.
You asked...we listened 👀. #WindowsDevHome backgrounds are now available as wallpapers just for you.

All of the wallpapers are in 4K and, as the Microsoft Design team mentions, all of them continue the Windows 11 wallpaper design theme with some new color choices, some new wave shapes, and some images that suggest code is embedded in them.

Microsoft loves to keep making new wallpapers, and also loves to revisit some older ones. A recent official 4K version of the classic Windows XP "Bliss" wallpaper was recently launched. Also, a leaked version of an upcoming Windows 11 update was discovered to have a hidden new wallpaper design.
