This Friday March 18th, I’ll be delivering a session on developing for Windows Phone using Silverlight. For this session there will be lots of code to share and very little power point slides and we are calling it ‘Silverlight Recipes’. The goal is to get developers up and running with code snippets that they can hopefully re-use in their applications. Here is a description of the event
Windows Phone 7 Silverlight Recipes (75 Mins)
If you’re building Windows Phone apps to help organize your life, capture your ideas, find out what’s going on around you, stay in touch with friends or gather the information you need, chances are you’ll be building them using Silverlight. We’ll show you how to build Silverlight apps that fetch data from web services, get the phone’s current location, display maps, organize applications into panoramas and data into pivots, make use of input and sensors and more. With these recipes under your belt, you’ll be writing apps that make the best use of Windows Phone 7 features in no time!
I’ll also be doing the same presentation on March 25th 2011, and then the sessions go across Canada. Here is a list of all the cities. Unfortunately I won’t be at all cities and someone else will be presenting the content.
