Maw, the emulation is for binary-only apps.

.NET can already be built to ARM CLR bytecode, or to ARM native/machine code.

This is for apps where you don't, and quite possibly never did, have the source.

Is the ARM CLR bytecode different from the x86 one ? Why ?

I don't think so. Because from my limited tinkering with UWP, I can build a single .appx package and deploy it both to my phone and to my laptop. Am I missing something?

No bytecode binaries run everywhere with a runtime (ms/mono) (and library support for whatever you are running).
