OneCore to rule them all: How Windows Everywhere finally happened

OneCore to rule them all: How Windows Everywhere finally happened
Microsoft promised developers that Windows would run anywhere. This summer, it finally will.

The Windows 10 Anniversary update, due later this summer, represents a major landmark for Microsoft. As well as being a significant update for Windows 10 on the desktop and Windows 10 Mobile on phones, the release is also coming to the Xbox One. For the first time, the Xbox One will be running essentially the same operating system as desktop Windows. Critically, it will also be able to run many of the same applications as desktop Windows.

In a lot of ways, this represents the realization of a vision that Microsoft has been promoting for more than 20 years: Windows Everywhere.

    I specifically like the ideology of querying for device-features rather then device types. "do I have a keyboard?" "do I have a touchscreen?" seems infinitely more flexible then basing app development around separately compiled fixed feature sets.
    Then again, being a web developer, that might be just how my mindset works to start with.

    Me too +Thomas Wrobel though I think they need even more specific ways to query. Do I have a touchscreen in particular; now even desktops have touchscreens.

    "Do I have a user that knows what they are doing" would also be a useful one.
