A closer look at Microsoft's updated Mail and Calendar apps with Fluent Design on Windows 10

Fluent Design is finally making its way to the Mail and Calendar apps in Windows 10! Here's a closer look at what to expect.

Yesterday, Microsoft began testing updated Mail and Calendar apps with a small group of Windows Insiders in the Skip Ahead ring that brings with it new Fluent Design elements and a clean layout that gives Mail and Calendar a fresh look leading into 2018. Here's a closer look at an early build of the new Mail and Calendar apps.

Considering these apps are still in testing with Insiders, it is likely that there is more work to be done before these new designs are finalized. Right now, the new Mail and Calendar apps feature Fluent Design in subtle yet pleasing ways, such as adding Acrylic and Reveal effects to the hamburger menu on the left of the app windows. There doesn't appear to be any "connected animations" in use yet, but that's not necessary for a Mail or Calendar app anyway.
