title: Can a Java Swing desktop application be converted to a UWP centennial app (AppX)?
body: <p>I have been reading about project centennial (<a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-root#preparing-your-desktop-app-for-conversion-to-uwp" rel="noreferrer">https://msdn.microsoft.com/windows/uwp/porting/desktop-to-uwp-root#preparing-your-desktop-app-for-conversion-to-uwp</a>), and it occurs to me that there are many legacy line-of-business apps that are written in Java (not to mention Python/Tkinter, <em>insert language/gui toolkit here</em>, etc). </p>
  
  <p>I can see a benefit in being able to market/distribute these through the Windows store (either internally for an enterprise or to the general public).</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if it is possible to turn a Java application into an AppX bundle (possibly using something like launch4j as an in-between step)?</p>
