Building for Windows using the MSIX orb

The MSIX orb is the first “Windows-only” orb from CircleCI. When Microsoft approached us with the opportunity to build an orb that would help Windows developers build on our platform, we were enthusiastic.

However, we recognized the deep need to provide good CI/CD solutions for building applications on Windows, and with use of PowerShell growing steadily within Linux, it was time to take the plunge.

Pocket article: How to implement and use `.noinit` RAM

A simple way to store information through a reboot is to use what’s called“non-initialized” memory.
