What Microsoft foresaw is for Project Reunion to be the go-to framework for creating Windows apps, bridging the gap between the Win32 and UWP apps, by calling them all Windows apps. Also worth taking into consideration is that Project Reunion 0.8 will include support for .NET 5 applications. This means that there will also be support for Windows Presentation Foundation, as well as Windows Forms apps. Read more about Microsoft’s Project Reunion in our dedicated article. Update: Right from the very start of the Microsoft Build 2021 conference, CEO Satya Nadella blew everyone’s minds by stating that Microsoft will soon release one of the most significant updates to Windows of the past decade. He also mentioned that one of the important targets that they want to achieve is to unlock greater economic opportunities for developers and creators. Also referenced in his keynote was the brand new Microsoft Store app that is in the works at the moment, a project that vows to unlock a better economy for developers and creators within the operating system itself. You can read more about this in our extensive article about changes that Microsoft has in store for Windows 10 in 2021. Update: Microsoft developers have let it be known that they have been focusing their efforts on making Microsoft Edge the best performing browser on Windows 10. In order to achieve this goal, their plan is to implement a startup boost for the browswer, which basically means that the app will launch much quicker. This will possible, according to Microsoft, by running a set of core Microsoft Edge processes in the background, all without adding additional resources when Microsoft Edge browser windows are open. For those of you who usually have a lot of browser tabs open at any time, the new sleeping tabs feature will make it its job to free up resources from the unused tabs. Microsoft prides itself with the fact that up to 82 percent memory savings will be the targeted outcome. As we all know, Microsoft Build represents the tech company’s annual developer dedicated conference, and it will start today, May 25th. Similar to last year, the event will take place in an online-only format rather than with the public, in Seattle. This conference is the environment in which Microsoft reveals upcoming changes for Windows, Office, and other apps.
