It is reported that Midori is a modular operating system developed by Microsoft, completely different from the existing Windows system. This operating system is centered on the Internet, and the development concept is "connected system". Midori can significantly reduce the interdependencies between local applications and between software and hardware platforms.

Unlike Windows systems, Midori does not use the NT kernel, which can be traced back to singularity, and the tools and run-time libraries are all managed code. Midori not only can run directly on x86, x64, arm and other native hardware, but also can run on the Hyper-V virtual machine level, or even a Windows process.
