Answer 1

I just tested and I could create a simple window and add a Button for the test
I created a .NET 5 VB project then I added a package and copied the Main function from the DemoBuildCs MS sample (for the DispatcherQueue) + minimum code from App and MainWindow classes
But I could not use Microsoft.UI.Xaml.Application.LoadComponent ("Xaml parsing failed" error, I probably missed something...)

Answer 3

WinUI 3 will work with every kind of Windows app! WinUI 3 can be used directly as the UI layer for Win32 and UWP apps, or it can be used to modernize a Win32 app's UI gradually, using XAML Islands to mix and match with the following technologies:
-WPF
-WinForms
-MFC
-ComCtl32
