Combining the broad reach of Windows, best-in-class developer tools, a re‑imagined
user experience, support for new chipsets, and a built-in store with industry-leading
business terms, Windows 8 is the fantastic developer opportunity.
Join us for free events with new sessions and
hands-on opportunities designed to help you start building Metro-style applications
for Windows 8 – today. We'll show you how to use Visual Studio to code fast, fluid,
immersive, and beautiful Metro-style applications in HTML5/JavaScript, XAML/C# and
C/C++. Your existing investments in these languages carry forward, making Windows
a no-compromise platform for developers. Attend just one day or join us for two
full days of learning and building. It's your choice.
DevCamp - Day 1 (Events run from 9:00AM – 8:00PM)
Our DevCamp covers Windows 8 Release Preview from top to bottom, featuring sessions
that run from introductory to intermediate as the day unfolds. These sessions will
be followed by an InstallFest to prepare your system for hands-on app development.
Hackathon - Day 2 (Events run from 9:00AM – 9:00PM)
Our Hackathon is an open Windows 8 code fest, where you'll put what you've learned
into practice. Code to your heart's content, with Windows 8 experts available to
guide you through every step of the process. It's the perfect opportunity to get
your dream application underway, or to finish that app you've already started.
This full-day event will be filled with coding, sharing, plenty of food, and perhaps
the occasional Lightning Talk on topics determined by your apps and questions. Bring
your own laptop installed with
Windows 8 Release Preview, your apps and your cool ideas and get ready to
create!
Register today and join us for this fantastic (and free) developer
opportunity.
Seating is limited.
