Yeah, computers have a lot more bells and whistles now, but the basics of how the system and the OS work haven't really changed that much, until you get out of native apps and into Electron and stuff. It's honestly remarkable how similar they are. Microsoft has a bunch of documentation about weird and quirky behavior they keep available for backwards compatibility, and most modern software developers take them up on that offer.
