Why you should not develop apps for Windows 10
The worst thing in my experience about windows 8&#x2F;windows 10 apps is that you cannot install apps from 3rd party sources. Sure you can install on a temporary&#x2F;testing basis by signing in with  a dev license, but you have to keep doing this every 3 months until microsoft decides to pull the plug.<p>This is a problem if you are writing an app for a client who doesn&#x27;t want to publish on the app store. The only option is the very expensive and opaque volume-licensing program which is useless if your app won&#x27;t have many activations anyway.<p>Ultimately Windows 8&#x2F;10 is a closed platform similar to iOS. Are we as developers willing to pay 30% of our revenues to Microsoft when the day comes that UWP will replace .net&#x2F;win32?
