The Fuchsia “Workstation” configuration

Workstation (workstation) is an open source reference design for Fuchsia. Workstation is not a consumer-oriented product. Workstation is a tool for developers and enthusiasts to explore Fuchsia and experiment with evolving concepts and features.

Workstation is one of the many product configurations" Fuchsia can be set up with, and it targets both the Fuchsia emulator as well as an Intel NUC - so real hardware. This configuration's goal is to be a basis for a general purpose development environment, good for working on UI, media and many other high-level features. This is also the best environment for enthusiasts to play with and explore."

They're emphasizing this is not some ploy to desktop dominance, but there's no denying that with every step Fuchsia takes - from shipping it on Google Home devices to porting and running Chrome - they're getting it ready for more than just some IoT project.
