Introduction and Outline


Welcome to How to Create Apps.  This is a brief introduction to creating apps in Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 using the XPlatformCloudKit project (XPCK).

This content on these pages assumes you have a little programming background in areas such as Visual Studio 2012/2013, C#, HTML, and that you know something about RSS.  This introduction will not focus on these technologies, but rather will discuss how to use XPCK to quickly create content apps and put them on the Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 Stores.

The process for doing this looks like
  • Decide to Become an App Developer
  • Design an App
  • Collect your Tools
  • Create the App
  • Prepare the App for Submission to the Windows Store
  • Submit it
