windows 11 development

About this tag
The windows 11 development tag covers Microsoft's evolving strategy for Windows 11, including AI integration, developer tooling, and platform updates. Discussions range from Microsoft Build 2026 announcements about AI agents and Copilot to the survival of Win32 APIs and the shift toward cloud-native and AI workloads. Topics also include practical setup guides for WSL2, VS Code, and Docker on Windows 10/11, as well as Windows 11 features like adaptive energy saver and Insider Build updates. The tag reflects how Windows 11 development is shaped by Microsoft's focus on AI, developer workflows, and incremental improvements rather than a new Windows version.
