- 15. Introduction Great News, not only for End-Users but also for Developers and the beginners – End-User experiences are very important – Windows Phone 7 Developers will use the latest Development Tools – The potential Windows Phone 7 Developer Community is large – Developing applications for Windows Phone 7 is fun – Free versions of the Development Tools for everybody
- 16. Introduction Who can develop applications for Windows Phone 7? – The Windows Phone 7 Application Model is familiar to Silverlight Developers • Windows Phone 7 Applications can be Silverlight based – Keep in mind that you are developing for a phone – The Windows Phone 7 Application Model is familiar to Game Developers • Windows Phone 7 Applications can be XNA based – Keep in mind that you are developing for a small device – The Windows Phone 7 Application Model is familiar to WM Developers • The life of managed application developers becomes easier – No P/Invoke, limited number of form factors
- 17. Getting Started Your one stop shop to – Get all the development / design tools you need • One single download gets you all the tools • Integrate nicely with already installed ‘paid’ SKU’s of the tools – Get inspired by blog entries, white papers, events and other resources – Get assistance from our daily growing Developer Community through Forums – Submit your applications for verification and deployment
- 18. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone Free version of Visual Studio 2010 to develop Windows Phone Applications – Develop Silverlight Applications for Windows Phone • Combination of XAML and C# code • Code execution inside a protected environment – Develop XNA Framework based Applications for Windows Phone • Combination of content (art) and C# code • Code execution inside a protected environment – Runs side-by-side with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 / 2008 • Allows ongoing development for Windows Mobile 6.x
- 19. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone
- 20. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone Using the Windows Phone 7 Emulator – Your first Windows Phone 7 target device for new applications – Application behavior on the emulator identical to a physical device – Great device to initially test your applications • Easy application deployment – Direct deployment from within Visual Studio 2010 • One emulator can host applications from multiple Visual Studio 2010 instances – Performance behavior and user experience will be (slightly) different
- 21. Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Express for Windows Phone Of course you don’t have bugs in your applications, but how to find mine? – Adequate debugging experience to find ‘day-to-day’ bugs • Setting breakpoints • Inspecting variables • Setting variables • Executing individual methods – Using the Output Window for Trace / Debug information
- 22. Developing and Debugging a Windows Phone Application
- 23. Windows Phone Application Anatomy – Everything can be done in code, but not always the easy road • XAML defines what you see on the phone • Code behind defines the behavior of your application – Software developers will meet XAML during application development • Developer and Designer roles combined • Making simple changes by modifying XAML code immediately • Creating static UI layouts from within Visual Studio 2010 – Designer support good enough to create the UI – No Support for dynamic behavior
- 24. Microsoft Expression Blend for Windows Phone Expression Blend is used to design User Interface Experiences – You can build amazing experiences relatively easy – Has a learning curve, especially for developers • The tool is powerful but use it ‘wisely’ for Windows Phone UI design • The tool of choice for transitions / animations • Has great support for showing / testing data driven UI elements – Can be used in combination with Visual Studio 2010 • Uses the same Windows Phone Emulator to test experiences

- 26. Adding a Cool UI to a Windows Phone 7 Application
- 27. Moving Beyond Visual Studio 2010 Express All Windows Phone 7 tools integrate in other Visual Studio 2010 SKU’s – You will get additional tools that can partly be used for phone development • Code Analysis, Code Metrics, (Profiling using a different target platform) – Better Debugging Experience • Great control over breakpoints • Additional tracing functionality – Team Collaboration – Targeting multiple platforms in multiple programming languages • XNA Studio supports creating project copies
- 28. Moving Beyond Visual Studio 2010 Express Not all Visual Studio 2010 Tools can be used for Windows Phone 7 – Can use tools that work directly on your source code – Cannot use tools that collect runtime information • No Edit and Continue support • No profiling on the device / emulator • No ‘standard’ Visual Studio 2010 unit testing support – Unit Testing through Silverlight Unit Test Framework • Ships as part of the Silverlight Toolkit (http://silverlight.codeplex.com/) – Device Performance Measurement • Enable Frame Rate Counter on device • Enable Redraw Regions on the device
- 29. REVIEWS In the same way that the Windows 7 desktop OS was nearly everything people hoped it would be, Windows Phone 7 is almost everything anyone could’ve dreamed of in a phone, let alone a Microsoft phone. It changes everything. Why? Now that Microsoft has filled in its gaping chasm of suck with a meaningful phone effort, the three most significant companies in desktop computing— Apple, Google and Microsoft—now stand to occupy the same positions in mobile. Phones are officially computers that happen to fit in your pocket.
- 30. This really is a completely new OS — and not just Microsoft’s new OS, it’s a new smartphone OS, like webOS new, like iPhone OS new. You haven’t used an interface like this before (well, okay, if you’ve used a Zune HD then you’ve kind of used an interface like this). Still, 7 Series goes wider and deeper than the Zune by a longshot, and it’s got some pretty intense ideas about how you’re supposed to be interacting with a mobile device.
- 31. What Microsoft has shown of its new mobile operating system looks nothing like the tired Windows interface of old; instead it looks like the much more enjoyable Zune HD. The idea of putting people and photos in one place where one can do multiple things is a good one. The connection to Xbox Live could help Microsoft appeal to a whole new area, while a pervasive connection to social networks like Facebook is also a key advance.
- 32. The user interface looks absolutely nothing like previous versions. If you’ve used a Zune HD, you’re halfway there. There’s a lot of big, pretty text, lists, and swiping up, down, left and right. The animation between screens is very nice. Only what’s absolutely necessary and relevant is shown on the screen. Forget about status bars, menu bars, or any of the usual “chrome”, as Microsoft calls it. Instead, all you see is the content you’re working with at the moment, and absolutely minimalist icons. Well, there is a very minimal status bar on some screens, but it’s much more minimal than you’re probably used to.
- 33. …if it actually performs properly, WP7 has the intangibles that Microsoft phones have lacked for years. It’s fun to explore. The interface makes sense. It’s easy to find the things you need. Nothing is buried. It uses the power of a mobile computer to put important information at the fore – possibly even more immediately than the iPhone.
- 34. We had a chance to try out some of the prototypes – though not take photos or video yet – earlier on today, and first impressions are reasonably positive. Microsoft were at pains to point out that it’s still an in- development build, and indeed we saw various bugs and slow-downs. Often these would take place when opening an app, with data being pulled in but no on- screen indication of that taking place nor its progress. The touchscreen on the development device seemed responsive, as was the onscreen keyboard, and the animations are smooth. The browser supports pinch- zoom and will eventually reflow text on a double-tap.
- 35. Conclusions – Windows Phone 7 is a new kind of phone • User Experience is completely different – Develop applications using the latest family of tools • Windows Phone Application Developers are First Class Citizens • Your applications are managed code (C#) only • Application deployment will be through Market Place – The paid SKU’s of Visual Studio have additional tools to increase your productivity and quality of code – Developing for Windows Phone 7 is FUN!
