Windows 10 introduces the Universal Windows Platform (UWP), which provides a common app platform available on every device running Windows 10. Apps written with the UWP can call APIs common to all Windows 10 devices as well as APIs specific to the device family the app is running on. The UWP provides a guaranteed core API layer allowing you to create a single app package that can be installed on various Windows 10 devices. The upgraded Windows Store provides a unified distribution channel for reaching all desired device types. Telerik UI for Universal Windows Platform makes your Windows 10 development more productive offering easy implementation of complex functionalities.

Before universal apps came along, creating apps for Windows 8.x Store and Windows Phone 8 was mostly a two-app project. Thanks to the universal Windows paradigm across devices, developers write code once and deploy on multiple Windows platforms with just small tweaks on the user interface. Telerik UI for Windows Universal plays nice with Microsoft Visual Studio and creates a Shared project template for Universal Apps allowing the same app to be written for Windows 8.1 Store and Windows Phone 8.1 with little code changes.
