Video Offers An Early Look At Projecy Neon
« on: February 09, 2017, 05:11:42 PM »
Project NEON, for some, may be the most interesting new thing Microsoft is developing for Windows 10. This visual overhaul is set to debut with the Redstone 3 update later this year.

And although there has been no confirmation whatsoever from the company, a number of reputable sources have leaked and detailed what is coming to the OS with this new design language — not just for operating system elements but also apps.

There is even talk of a possible return of the beloved Aero Glass, and even Zune.

We got our first look via a few screenshots early last month, and it did not take long for users to whip up some concepts showing these design changes in action.

But now it looks like that the latest Windows 10 preview build come with an early implementation of Project NEON, allowing developers a chance to take advantage of certain parts. With a little work, it is possible to actually implement these elements in apps.

And that is exactly what a developer has done, providing users access to hidden operating system features and settings.

As reported, these APIs and elements have been used in a app called Interop Unlock Tools, whereby the developer managed to give users a glimpse at what developed may be able to achieve with their own applications once Project NEON officially arrives.

Take a look:



Shiny!

The video demonstrates the working capabilities of this new design language, and what Microsoft is working on right now in terms of the overall visual look of its operating system. It’s an early implementation, yes, but it does look good.

You can even download the preview of the app, take it for a spin, and see things for yourself, as long as you are running Windows 10 Insider Preview build 15019.
