Azure/Cloud, HTML5, Windows Phone Free Training Events Coming To Your City

5 Cities in the west (March 30 to May 25)

Developer Camps (DevCamps for short) are free, fun, no-fluff events for developers, by developers. You learn from experts in a low-key, interactive way and then get hands-on time to apply what you’ve learned. Where else can you get so much good stuff all in a day?

You don’t want to waste your time at an Azure DevCamp downloading and installing files. Setting up can take quite some time and will interfere with productivity.   I will also provide some posts for those that could not attend.

1. Hardware Minimum Hardware configurations.
2. Software Windows, Visual Studio

  Labs and PowerPoints
 

You are about to install Windows Azure Camps Kit.

The Windows Azure Camps Training Kit includes the hands-on labs and presentations that are used for the Windows Azure Camp events.

Installer for Azure Web Camps https://www.contentinstaller.net/Install/ContentGroup/WAPCamps

  Video – to prepare you are ready
  The main thing to remember is that most of the labs can be done with emulators. This means you don’t necessarily need to deploy your app to the cloud (Microsoft Data Center). You can run most of these labs all on your local computer. This is important as there is not often enough network bandwidth at large events. Currently, there is no audio. But it should be easy to follow.

  Conclusion
  Please verify you can run the sample demonstrated in the video above. This will give you a huge headstart once you attend the boot camp.
