Had a few minutes between things to do a little experiment. You can create
a simple Windows 10 Universal App (runs on any Win platform, Xbox, etc) in
a few key strokes to work with Gnoga. You just use visual studio to create
a JS Universal Windows Project. Modify default.html to include boot.js and
jquery.min.js as you would to create any Gnoga boot page. (Don't forget to
copy those .js files to your VisualStudio project directory under js. Then
modify boot.js to hardcode the server location in this case
ws://localhost:8080/gnoga and start.

Is not a perfect solution, but you can bind the WinJS APIs etc as needed
and actually write full Windows 10 apps. Granted despite the title of being
universal since GNAT for .NET is not up to date (and GPL encumbered) and
there is no LLVM backend to do ASM.js from Ada, you won't truly be able to
do anything universal, but at least you can write some nice new Windows 10
apps for the PC in Ada.
