It is no more news that Google is working on another operating system (OS) called Fuchsia. According to rumours, the OS would be a synergy of the Chrome OS and the Android OS, but nobody knows how true that is – until yesterday.
Members of a website called 9to5Google claimed that while reading the latest Android’s source code, they saw an indication that points out that Android apps would run on the Fuchsia OS. They said on a thorough reading of the readme file of the Android’s source code, a post says “These targets are used to build ART for Fuchsia. They differ from usual Android devices as they do not target specific hardware. They will produce a fuchsia package (.far file).”
From the post in the readme file, it was concluded that the Fuchsia OS will get its own equivalent of Android Runtime, and therefore, be able to run Android apps. The OS would also be able to run on other hardware – besides Android devices.
As 2019 progresses, we hope to get more information about the Fuchsia OS.
