On windows computers, applications from microsoft will not look and act the same as windows and menus from the operating system. true false

True.

Windows is an operating system built by Microsoft. Chrome and Android are operating systems built by Google. MacOS (Macbook pro etc) and iOS (iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch etc) are operating systems built by Apple.

Engineers build applications or apps for all of the above operating systems (OS). For example, Microsoft Word menus will look slightly different on Windows vs on a Mac. The underlying functionality maybe the same but the way it looks may have subtle differences.

Think of the OS as the foundation of a building. Once you have the foundation, you can build a house, a skyscraper, an office building etc depending on what you want to build.
