- douche 9y agoI've never been able to figure out what direction UWP apps were supposed to go. At one point it was C++, then it was .NET, then it was some dialect of JavaScript. The political tides ebb and flow, but Win32 abides.
- UK-AL 9y agoThe point is that UWP is basically built on COM and can be used by all 3. C/C++ is good for people who have existing C++ codebases or skills, which they want to bring into the UWP world. C#/F# for new app development. JavaScript to bring in electron/web guys on board.
