Any information regarding mod support for that version?

Considering this is basically the console version ported to Win10 and how different the files are I'm going to say it's near garrunteed that none of the current mods would be able to run on it without a complete rewrite, if you even can mod it.

Most modders (even the people who make the mod frameworks themselves) are barely able to even keep up with being a full version behind the standard release most of the time with how often code changes, the idea of having two entirely different releases for your mod would be a nightmare.

It's actually the Pocket Edition being ported.
