Note: this blog posted is written during the session and is just a set of notes from the session These are not all the new features/updates, but some f them that they chose to show during the session. Ill find some time to make a full list after BUILD, meanwhile make sure you check out […]
Make sure you read the first part: BUILD 2013 Detailed Keynote: introduction and demonstrations Antoine Leblond takes the stage to give us the developer details on Windows 8.1 New in Visual Studio 2013 Power consumption in milliwatt (mW) Async debugging. Procedural Async code is hard to debug, so it has been made easier for us […]
In a few minutes BUILD is about to kick of and I am so exited! Ill be blogging about the conference during the conference trying to bring you the news and excitement in real time 😀 I’m here with my colleagues at Telerik, surrounded by good friends, some I’ve meet only online. It is to […]
This is part two of my programming session with mum where she creates her first application. So far we have spent one hour and ten minutes and we have created a first project with JavaScript using Icenium. We have an idea for an app with ten herbs translated to three languages, and we have created […]
You might be surprised that although I work for Telerik as an evangelist I haven’t tried all our products. We have a lot of products, and I don’t have a lot of time. But with BUILD coming up, I’ve decided to try out and learn the ins and outs of every single product we have. […]
What we will cover In this post we will introduce our next guide on creating Windows Store Apps, this time with JavaScript and HTML. Windows Store App guide with JavaScript and HTML A couple of months ago we walked through the steps of creating a Windows Store application in C# and XAML using Telerik graph […]
[To celebrate my first year of programming I will ask a ‘stupid’ questions daily on my blog for a year, to make sure I learn at least 365 new things during my second year as a developer] Packaged apps deliver an experience as capable as a native app, but as safe as a web page. […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metro/ WinRT application go here I can’t believe it is time! For the past 17 steps we have been working on a small Windows Store App together, and it is now time to submit it to the Windows Store. Let’s have […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metro/ WinRT application go here Recap We have been building on a Windows Store App, and the app is almost finished. The application allows users to register study items (things they would like to learn) and track their progress and generate […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metro/ WinRT application go here Recap We are building a small application where a user can register study activities and update their progression and see some graphs based on that data. Last time we implemented a function that allows the user […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metro/ WinRT application go here Welcome 🙂 We are currently at step 15 in our step by step guide for creating a Windows Store Application- if this is the first post you’ve seen in this series I would recommend that you […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here We are getting closer to a final first version of this app! One of the requirements is that the app should support different view modes, such as the snapped view, filled view,- and you can choose […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here The charts are more or less the selling point of the app, so we should add more of them. It would be pretty cool to be able to compare estimated time with actual time, as a […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here I mentioned a few times that synchronous programming can be a bit problematic when programming Windows Store Applications. Asynchronous programming is basically a must- as it is considered good practice and gives a better user experience […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here We are getting closer now! We need to add function to add and edit category names. To do this I’ve added a neat field within the edit field that is bound to the selected listview item, […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here A fairly delayed post unfortunately, to get us moving faster I’ve decided to add more features this time around so prepare for some big steps! So far we haven’t discussed how we are going to store […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here Now lets add our editing field! In our drawing we had a popup dialog, but I’ve been thinking about it, and since we have quite a few fields to edit/fill in it wouldnt be appropriate and […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr0/ WInRT application go here Time to have a talk about design. As I’ve understood it, most devs aren’t too keen on this part- but for WinRT / Windows Store Apps this an important requirement. To make it easier for us […]
It took less than 48 hours to get my app published (Attending a Microsoft App Excellence Lab next week, hoping for a token for Windows Store) so that might have speeded up the process, but I’ve heard that it doesn’t take as long as with Windows Phone Apps anyway (took me over a week for […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here Welcome back! As promised we will be working more on the presentation of data today! I’m not sure if you noticed, but the items in the list were not grouped, and we would of course love […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here First! The most important thing! Let’s have some fun. Adding text and coming up with names is tedious and boring. Lets add a few more items to our test data, and add some more text in […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here Sorry for this tiny delay on the blog post, I’ve been in Bulgaria for Telerik’s 10 year anniversary/teambuilding thursday – monday , and the resort we stayed at only had wifi in the bar – and […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here We have created the project and the basic UI, but something important is missing,- RadControls for WinRT/Metro ! We will be using the controls to achieve a consistent look and feel, and it will save us […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here Finally time to get down to business! On this app we will start with the UI, but before we do that we need to create a new project. You have to run Windows 8 and Visual […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here Great! So we have talked about the idea now, and it is time to sketch out a plan. Here is the plan: Â 1. Decide what your app is great at MIH!SP is great at planning and […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here Let me introduce to you the WinRT/Metro app we will be making in the next few months! I spent a lot of time and made a list with about 20 different ideas, and chose one that […]
To read the other steps in the step by step guide for creating a Metr/ WInRT application go here I would like to welcome you to a code-along series, as I create a WinRT application step by step. The code will be downloadable and I invite you to provide comments and suggestions as we make […]
It has been a crazy 13th month this month. With my head spinning good I blissfully have enjoyed unexpected turns on my journey as a developer after such an embracing entrance in the public developer community. And I want to give something back- because you might have noticed that I have a lot of energy […]
I need to display charts in my Metro app, and there are no controls available (yet) for WinRT. I had already planned how to create my own, but I really don’t have the time for it, whenI came across Telerik’s chart control (preview only). I emailed them for an access code, and tweeted a little […]
