Отрывок из книги
Welcome to Windows 10 Bible. If you're familiar with Windows, you might know that the Windows operating system has existed for three decades. In that time, it has transformed in many ways as computer hardware has changed dramatically.
Windows 10 is the latest edition in the Windows family and builds on the usability and performance improvements in Windows 7 and Windows 8.x. One of the biggest differences, however, is the introduction of a cross-platform model that brings the same code base and user experience to a wide range of platforms including the PC, tablets, phones, Xbox, and even small devices like the Raspberry Pi!

Another important change in the new Windows Store is the type of apps you can download. Previously, the Windows Store supported only modern Windows apps. The revamped store enables you to obtain modern Windows apps, traditional desktop apps, and hosted web apps. The latter enable developers to convert components of their web sites into apps that they then make available through the Windows Store. These web apps are hosted on the vendor's infrastructure rather than being downloaded to the users' devices but have access to the notifications, camera, calendar, Cortana, and other features on the device.
Finally, the new Windows Store integrates content as well as apps. You can purchase and stream TV shows, movies, and music from the Windows Store to your Windows 10 devices.
