Agenda:

1) WinRT – Windows Re-Thought
Windows Runtime stands for the backbone of the Windows 8 operating system. It provides the familiar development platform for developers as well as supplying the bridge for the lower layers of the COM foundation of Windows 8 OS. In this session, different areas of the new development platform will be visited such as design, contracts, threading. The new visual studio and development tools will put under magnifying glass.

2) Application Contracts - When, Where, Why, How
Windows 8 contracts are agreements between Windows 8 and your app that allow you to integrate your app into Windows 8 experience. By means of using contracts, you can make your application become part of the operating system and make it easy for the user to access the information or features that your app can provide. In this session, you'll learn how contracts work and how to implement the built-in contracts such as Search, Share, Settings and Play To.

3) Application Lifecycle Management in WinRT
Learn about the lifecycle of a Windows Store app, from the time it is deployed through its removal. By working with Windows to suspend and resume your app appropriately, you ensure that your customer has the best possible experience with your app. We will also be talking about the connected sleep mode, and different options for you to do work when you application is technically not “working”.

4) Visual Studio Application Templates and Unit Testing (Hands-On)
In this session, we will be building a small media library browser application using the new features and application templates of Visual Studio. The attendants can use their laptops to follow the instructions and distributed code snippets to build the media explorer application.
