The filesystem is basically a database and files have associated metadata like a description or whatever, searches are nearly instant. The email app for example uses this, I've never seen anything even come close to how well this worked.

Under the hood it uses a server model for pretty much everything.

The programming APIs are elegant.

There's a lot to it you wouldn't have noticed immediately by just starting it and opening a few apps.
