Jen-Hsun Huang, Nvidia's leader, said Windows 8 will support Windows Phone 7-based applications. Windows 8 news continues to "trickle" and people don't really know the new platform will work. how.

Mobile applications written for Windows Phone 7 can run in Windows 8 - Nvidia Company President and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang said, according to CNet. Nvidia leaders do not provide any other information. People are waiting until the opening day of the Microsoft Build Conference from September 13 to 16 in Anaheim, California (USA) for more details.

According to Business Insider, Microsoft is having problems with operating systems: The company has created Windows 8 as a new platform for tablets. Meanwhile, Microsoft has a new platform for mobile phones, Windows Phone 7. As a result, developers are wondering what platform to use and how they should write applications because of their immediate future. They have three goals to conquer: Windows Phone 7, Windows 8 for tablets, and Windows 8 for desktops and laptops (!).

The head of Nvidia Jen-Hsun Huang said that Microsoft needed to ensure cross-platform .

Compared to Apple, Microsoft chose a different approach, compatible desktop systems (Windows) with tablets, while Apple compatible with smartphones (iPhone OS) with tablets, Business Insider saved. I mean. Like in the past, Microsoft forced developers to learn too much: At first, developers had to learn Visual Basic; then .NET; next is Silverlight. In June last, Microsoft Vice President for Windows Experience Julie Larson Green suddenly announced that the applications being demonstrated for Windows 8 were developed thanks to HTML5 and JavaScript .

To avoid developers' anger, Microsoft was forced to consolidate the creation of applications for Windows Phone 7 and Windows 8. Although the launch of Windows 8 was intended to be released until 2012, the effect of merging applications that can be felt from now - It raises concerns about the Windows Phone platform (which accounts for about 2% of the mobile operating system market share) because of the application programs that the home Developers currently writing for it in the future will be able to work on hundreds of millions of personal calculation systems sold annually.

The new operating system (Windows 8) needs to be seen as a dual platform, Business Insider commented. In this regard, in July 2011, Microsoft Windows Phone Chairman Andy Lees mentioned. He explained why they shifted from top to bottom (from a traditional computer platform to a tablet platform), not the other way around: That's because they want first-hand tablets like computers. personal rather than a mobile phone (as opposed to Apple's philosophy).

Last week, Microsoft Windows and Windows Live Division Chairman Steven Sinofsky made it clear that the Metro interface (borrowed from Windows Phone) introduced in June 2011 will be loaded by default in Windows 8. Then Users can either keep this interface while handling basic tasks or close it and download from a normal desktop screen - this way it will be just an application.

Sinofsky's explanation on the company's official blog caused great controversy. The majority of readers are strongly opposed to Metro as the default user interface. Earlier, Microsoft promised that this time they would pay more attention to user comments and demands.
