Sure it works. But the message before suggested that OpenGL and Vulkan don't for some reason. As far as I know they all work though and have worked for years now.

Probably because the drivers have to support it as well, I guess.

Also on desktop side, Windows on ARM, and UWP don't have that great support for anything beyond DirectX.

There is a compatibility pack and another one Angle based, but they haven't been updated in a while.
