This is very nice! A while back, I attempted to interact with Bluetooth/BLE on Windows 10 with Node.js, which didn't go particularly well... I switched to ChakraCore (pretty rough at the time but required for node-uwp support) which was supposed to give me access to the Windows APIs but nothing was working out as expected, so I ended up dropping my project. Thanks to this, I might be able to give this another shot! I see there's an open issue for Electron, I'll try and give it a shot over the weekend too.

It would be very nice if the WinMD thing could be system-agnostic (within reason of course), so that the generated modules aren't specific to a particular version of Windows. I admittedly know very little about this, so I'm guessing it's a lot more complex than I realize.
