When we launched Tower for Mac a few years back, we didn’t have any plans for a Windows version. However as we received more and more requests from our users, we finally decided to commit to it. As we’re bootstrapped and a small team, it took us longer than expected. But now we have a 100% native app and even so it’s still in beta, we are really happy with the result. It’s also great to see that other Mac apps are making the move to Windows as well. This might also have to do with the new leadership at Microsoft and their efforts in supporting developers. So far it's been really great working with them and they've been very supportive.
I'm curious, Is it a UWP app?
Does it make a difference as a developer oriented piece of software?
Yes. As a developer who really likes Windows - I don't touch UWP apps or anything that comes from the Windows Store unless I am forced to.
I do not support Apple-style lock-down on Windows.
As a matter of fact, I am fully prepared to leave Windows if Microsoft continues to push this effort. I used to enjoy building Windows desktop apps with WinForms and then WPF, but once Windows 8 came out I saw where Microsoft was headed and I decided to focus on Web development. Now I pay my bills with Angular, Node and Ionic/Cordova/PhoneGap.

no, it's a WPF desktop app
I'd add 1Password to that list. Even though they already had an ancient Windows app, they recently launched a new, updated one (albeit still in early stages, but receiving very frequent updates) that support all their new features (Pro, Family and the new subscription model).
Time for Sketch to make the move
awesome - any way to get an invite? trying to convince team mates to all use Tower but have a guy on Windows that is the goto excuse for us not all adopting it.
Out of curiosity, what difference does any one person's choice of git client matter?
As long as the developers are using git, the client they use a front-end shouldn't make any difference to the rest of the team.
I've yet to find a tool that was better for day to day use (for me) than the CLI personally.
