Back in April, Microsoft released the Windows 10 SDK Preview Build 18362 for Windows Insiders. The company released the SDK along with the Build 18362 for Windows Insiders on Fast Ring. While it has been a couple of months since the release, the SDK is still available primarily to Windows Insiders and can be downloaded from the developer section on Windows Insider website.
The SDK comes with a whole bunch of new APIs which one might miss on the first sight. However, a UWP developer recently discovered that new APIs are related to eSIM, Miracast, Machine learning, and HoloLens. The new APIs do confirm that Microsoft is still developing new technologies related to the hardware.
In W10 preview SDK 18362, they added:
ESim and Phone stuff
Tons of Miracast APIs
Tons of Machine learning
POS receipt printers APIs?
Spacial APIs / some HoloLens APIsAnyone who tells you UWP is dead is a liar, they're adding TONS of stuff to the SDKs pic.twitter.com/K9AKT0EJAJ

We don’t know if eSIM and phone APIs are for LTE based Surface devices or for the long rumoured Microsoft Surface Phone, aka Andromeda. In any case, you can head to Microsoft’s official post for more details and the full list of APIs.
