All Microsoft apps should come to the Store, naturally. Will probably have to wait till year end to know for sure.
That's my thoughts exactly. If you're a developer looking to create or build your own apps or programs, you'll want to avoid Windows 10 S for now. Nobody is developing apps on an Android tablet or iPad, so why should they on a version of Windows locked down to the Store?
Considering that the Surface Laptop comes with Windows 10 S, is there any way to use visual studio without having to upgrade to windows 10 pro?
I would be very happy to open the three screens of a smartphone, run the visual studio code, at least, and edit an application that I was working on, or develop something fast in an academic environment without having to use a notebook or desktop. This is my dream of mobile productivity.

hey rafael what do you mean "the three screens of a smartphone"? are you talking about windows 10 mobile, android, and ios? i agree that there are times i want to make edits but dont want to use my computer. it happens for me with editing photos, but i do appreciate the convenience of doing something like that when i edit onenote notes or send messages in chat apps so any app and app user could benefit from this action of fluid transition between computer and mobile device including developers and app development.
I understand that want, but right now it's just not viable. Continuum and Samsung's DeX make me wonder if there's a future, but it's obvious that no company has seen value into putting that incredible amount of effort into bringing a working coding application to the super mobile world.
I would not be so sure. Microsoft revived the Surface brand in a cool way, and even the original Surface was recreated in Surface Studio. I would not be surprised if the same thing happened to Microsoft Courier. They could be tweaking that concept all those years and finally have something that can innovate in the market, after all, this concept of foldable screen has already been researched by them for many years and now they are partnering with Samsung, which also develops the same technology. My body is ready for a new category of Surface, or Courier, or Andromeda mobile PC, or whatever name they wish.
This technology might be very popular. There are plenty of people who would happily give up PCs and laptops if they had everything they need on their phones. For example manager or people from marketing who need to travel a lot - they would love to go somewhere, plug their phone into a bigger display with a keyboard, do some work, and then go and finishing on the phone, without a need to go into cloud etc.

Have not you watched WestWorld? I'm talking about their "PC folder". See the link I posted.

hey zachary. have you heard about the electronics bans going on for certain flights? if not, its a ban enacted by the u.s. and u.k. on large or fat electronics for any flights originating in some middle east and north african countries. i bring that up because it covers laptops and tablets but not smartphones up to a certain size. companies dont want their employees to leave sensitive data unattended, so in this situation a device that can run continuum or continuum-like capabilities would be an excellent choice. the phone is with the employee at all times, as opposed to a laptop that has to be given to airline staff for them to stow away until the flight lands, and now that citrix is windows 10 mobile compatible and runs in continuum its users can still be productive by connecting to company resources without bringing and worrying about something that will be temporarily confiscated at the airport by strangers.
