About this tag
Build 2026 was Microsoft's developer conference where the company repositioned Windows 11 around native apps, Windows on Arm, local AI development, and agent-driven hardware. Key announcements included developer tools like Coreutils for Windows, WSL Containers, Intelligent Terminal, and renewed commitment to WinUI and Windows App SDK. Microsoft also introduced AI agent frameworks with security features like Microsoft Execution Containers, Scout, and Project Solara, alongside NVIDIA RTX Spark for Arm PCs. The conference emphasized making Windows a platform for building, running, and governing agentic AI systems, with a developer-optimized Windows 11 configuration that strips distractions. Build 2026 focused on practical tools and infrastructure rather than just AI features.
