Webinar summary: Are you currently building XAML-based applications using Silverlight or WPF? And are you afraid that all you’ve learned in the past is now suddenly obsolete? Then you should really attend this webinar and be amazed!
We’ll see how you can transfer your knowledge to the new Metro-way of building applications. We’ll do this by looking at a working application that contains most of the features you’ve come to love in Silverlight.
You’ll learn that things like data binding, styling, controls and much more can be leveraged to build applications in Windows 8. After this webinar, you will see that all of a sudden, you are already an experienced Metro app developer! A big smile is guaranteed after this talk!
