The web-based Microsoft outlook client you use is about to get an overhaul.
According to Windows Central, Microsoft is building a universal Outlook client that will function across both the Windows and macOS platforms. The effort, currently named “Project Monarch,” will eventually replace the default Mail and Calendar applications on Windows 10:
The article offered the following:
Project Monarch is the end-goal for Microsoft’s “One Outlook” vision, which aims to build a single Outlook client that works across PC, Mac, and the Web. Right now, Microsoft has a number of different Outlook clients for desktop, including Outlook Web, Outlook (Win32) for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Mail & Calendar on Windows 10. Microsoft wants to replace the existing desktop clients with one app built with web technologies. The project will deliver Outlook as a single product, with the same user experience and codebase whether that be on Windows or Mac. It’ll also have a much smaller footprint and be accessible to all users whether they’re free Outlook consumers or commercial business customers.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
