Source Code Leaked - Mobile Adaptation Kit?

[PerfectReign]

Looks like someone grabbed and posted all Windows source code. I've read there's a few 64-bit ARM builds as well as "Microsoft's Windows 10 Mobile Adaptation Kit, a confidential software toolset to get the operating system running on various portable and mobile devices." Wonder what that means...

I don't know, but it can't be a good thing to have all of that out in the wild. What a headache for MS.

Sounds like a SDK for using win10m on other devices, like wearables and smarthome devices.

OR it could be a kit designed to get win10m working on other mobile phones. Or both.

It could be related to this..

Or it might be software to get windows on arm, working on win10m phones (not that I think there is much reason, to rush towards WoA, on phones).

I think given the OEM link though, its likely to be for OEMs to create win10m devices.

Its likely to be for OEMs to make w10M and W10 on arm devices . especially the adaptation part seems to hint adaptable interfaces as well ie Cshell
