Who else remembers the Project Astoria project at the 2015 Microsoft Build conference, which is intended to make use of the Android ecosystem to make up for its own shortcomings, equivalent to adding a plug-in for Android applications running on Windows systems.

In Microsoft's latest publicly released Win 10 preview version of the Build 10149 system upgrade package, foreign media found that the "Projecta" file occupies nearly one-third of the entire 300MB upgrade package. This file is the embedded Android subsystem.

According to Microsoft's official website description, the converted Android application can directly use the Windows Phone system's own keyboard, built-in copy and paste function, sharing menu will also seamlessly dock to Windows Phone's Share Contract, most common APIs Can correspond to in Windows Phone.
Before, Microsoft has officially launched the "Project Astoria" homepage, allowing developers to register and participate in the program, as well as explaining the details of "compatibility". Regardless of whether or not it is completely transferred to Android, Microsoft seems to be ready to incorporate Android into its own ecology. As for love or kill, we as viewers, and waiting to see.
