Speaking Sessions

  • An introduction to Windows XAML

    9:45 AM Saturday   Room: AF-231
    XAML is Microsoft's premium UI presentation technology. Building Windows Presentation Foundation app? That's XAML. Building a Silverlight app? That's XAML. Building a Windows Phone app? That's XAML. Building Windows Universal app? That's XAML, too. The native Windows 10 UI is XAML, the next version of Office is XAML, and Microsoft's first party out-of-the-box apps are also XAML. This session is for people ready to get started. Understand the concepts, implement the basics, and dabble in the advanced.
