Windows Apps JumpStart LIVE Events Series

  • Artikel

We’re starting a new series of events for UK developers that will help you on the journey from initial interest in developing apps for Windows 8 and Windows Phone right the way through to publishing an app to the Windows Store. You can join into the series at whichever point makes sense to you, so whether you’ve never opened Visual Studio before or written a line of C#, or you’re a developer who has already written software using out tools and languages but are new to apps, we can help you get to that point where you’re publishing your first app into our store. And we’re going to repeat the series of events every quarter, so you can jump on and off the series and attend events at whatever pace makes sense to you.

We start with two one-hour webinars run back-to-back:

Webinar 1: Windows Apps JumpStart LIVE Series - Kick Starter Webinar for the non C#/XAML developer: This one hour webinar is aimed at developers who are completely new to Visual Studio, XAML, C# and .NET. This will give you what they need to get started with downloading Visual Studio, a little bit of knowledge of C# and the structure of a XAML-based app.

Webinar 2: Windows Apps JumpStart LIVE Series - JumpStart Webinar: Building Apps with C# and XAML: This one hour webinar follows on straight away after the previous one. It is aimed at developers who are new to Windows Store app development, but who have some experience of developing software using .NET, or for those who have attended the previous webinar.

Following on from the webinars, we have a one-day dev camp:

Dev camp: Windows Apps JumpStart LIVE Series: Windows Apps Dev Workshop
This one day event will be help at Microsoft’s offices near Victoria Station, London, running 9:30 – 18:00. At this workshop, you will learn how to program Windows and Windows Phone apps, including universal apps that run on both. There will be Hands-on Labs available, and you can get tips and advice from Microsoft experts and from peers in the developer community.

And following on from that, we have a one-day Publish hackathon:

Publish event: Windows Apps JumpStart LIVE Series: Publish Hackathon
This informal one-day event will also be held at Microsoft’s building in London, running 9:00 – 21:00 on a Saturday. This is a fun 12 hour event encouraging developers to bring their existing projects (apps/cloud projects) to polish and publish through to the last mile with help from Microsoft and community experts.

First events are coming up fast!:

Come along and join us – and if not this quarter, remember we are repeating these events throughout the year so you can join us when you can!
