## Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp)
268+
269+
The Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp) is a platform component containing a set of predefined user interfaces and APIs that Azure Virtual Desktop developers can use to deploy and manage Remote Desktop connections to their Azure Virtual Desktop resources. If this application is required on a device for another application to work correctly, it will automatically be downloaded by the other application. There should be no need for user interaction.
270+
271+
The purpose of the Azure Virtual Desktop (HostApp) is to provide core functionality to other client apps in the Microsoft Store. This is known as the *Hosted App Model*. For more information, see [Hosted App Model](https://blogs.windows.com/windowsdeveloper/2020/03/19/hosted-app-model/).
