Building Windows 8 Apps with HTML5 & JavaScript

Recently I was asked to do a webcast on Building Windows 8 Apps with HTML5 & JavaScript as part of the Developer Movement Web Camp.

Here is a list of some of the content covered:

• IE9 & IE10 WC3 Standards Improvements
• CSS3 Features in IE and Windows 8 Apps
• HTML5 Features in IE and Windows 8 Apps
• Going from IE Web to Windows 8 App
  • HTML & DOM API Changes List
  • Features & Restrictions by Context (local vs web context)
  • Websites to Windows Store Apps
• WinJS
• WinJS Controls

Throughout some of the demos, I showed the Contoso Cookbook.  The original download for Contoso Cookbook which goes through a lot of concepts is available in the Windows 8 Camp in a Box.
