Most specifically in the way that apps will animate with the new Fluent UI.

The Northwinds Sprinkler System demo reminded me a lot of the old proto-Modern design paradigm.

(Will update to a video that works better later, the timecode url isn't working. Go to 38:21 for the demo.)

In this old MKBHD ZuneHD review you can see how the layers of the UI fly and flow between menus to guide your eyes like the new Fluent system does.

(This one is supposed to start at 1:26.)

It's nice to see Microsoft returning to some of their older UI elements that worked well after spending the last few years standardizing their UX to match other UIs.
