On the heyday of trying to cater devs into WinRT, Microsoft had a couple of projects:

- Project Astoria[0], for porting Android apps

- Project Centennial[1], for porting Win32 apps

- Windows Bridge for iOS[2], for porting iOS apps

Project Astoria was later rebooted into WSL, and now with Windows Subsystem for Android we are back at Astoria's original goal.
