Genesi di Windows 10

Geek   30.07.15  

The Verge racconta il processo che ha portato allo sviluppo di Windows 10, partendo dagli errori di Windows 8.

Windows 10 has a lot to live up to. Microsoft has made a lot of promises about it. And oddly enough, we've heard most of them before, with Windows 8. Both were designed to acknowledge and embrace mobile and mobile apps, work well on touchscreens as well as laptops, and form the basis of a new phone platform. But there's a big difference between them: Windows 10 actually does all those things.

Windows 10 in tutte le app del mondo

Windows 10 permetterà il porting delle app sviluppate per sistemi iOS e Android.
La nuova filosofia di Microsoft, se non puoi battere i loro app store integrali nel tuo.

iOS and Android developers will be able to port their apps and games directly to Windows universal apps, and Microsoft is enabling this with two new software development kits. On the Android side, Microsoft is enabling developers to use Java and C++ code on Windows 10, and for iOS developers they'll be able to take advantage of their existing Objective C code. "We want to enable developers to leverage their current code and current skills to start building those Windows applications in the Store, and to be able to extend those applications," explained Microsoft's Terry Myerson during an interview with The Verge this morning.

The idea is simple, get apps on Windows 10 without the need for developers to rebuild them fully for Windows. While it sounds simple, the actual process will be a little more complicated than just pushing a few buttons to recompile apps. "Initially it will be analogous to what Amazon offers," notes Myerson, referring to the Android work Microsoft is doing. "If they're using some Google API... we have created Microsoft replacements for those APIs." Microsoft's pitch to developers is to bring their code across without many changes, and then eventually leverage the capabilities of Windows like Cortana, Xbox Live, Holograms, Live Tiles, and more. Microsoft has been testing its new tools with some key developers like King, the maker of Candy Crush Saga, to get games ported across to Windows. Candy Crush Saga as it exists today on Windows Phone has been converted from iOS code using Microsoft's tools without many modifications.

Windows 10

Screenshot di Windows 10

Non ci sarà nessun Windows 9. Il 2015 vedrà la nascita di Windows 10. O forse Windows Uno Zero.
Un passo avanti rispetto a Windows 7 e un passo indietro rispetto a Windows 8. Microsoft ha scelto la via della familiarità dell'interfaccia abbandonando quella dell'innovazione. Perennemente indecisa tra la svolta tablet/mobile e la sicurezza concessa dalla piattaforma desktop.

Lato enterprise sarà un successo assicurato.
