My first Windows Phone 7 app! Stock Arbiter

  • Article

So Windows Phone hits the market and like any curious .Net developer the platform catches my eye.  Of course it is built on .Net and yet another technology I’ve been waiting to find a reason to learn, Silverlight.  So like any other curious developer I began to delve into the world of the mobile application.  I downloaded the Windows Phone 7 SDK and started playing the the samples provided on the App Hub (https://create.msdn.com) web site.  The tools and the samples are pretty straight forward.  There is also the Windows Phone toolkit which contains several controls that can prove helpful to your UI.  If you are already a Silverlight developer then you too are a Windows Phone 7 developer! 

The power of the platform, WPF, Silverlight, and Silverlight for WP7 really provide a compelling story and hopefully soon we shall see the true write once run anywhere type of development we all dream of!  As for my application:
