Is there roadmap for, or already existing and I missed it, a windows store Perspective App? Specific use case is wanting to get the geolocation from a gps signal on the laptop via the native perspective app functionality...but on a Windows OS laptop.

The “native” version of Perspective already exists - Perspective Workstation.

There is currently no integration with location services.
