What you'll learn

Microsoft® Windows 8 has introduced a new application platform that targets touch-screen mobile devices, which also runs on traditional desktop and notebook computers. Microsoft has provided various tools and programming languages to support development in this platform, giving the developer the ability to use tools and techniques that they are most comfortable with. With Visual Studio® (including the free version of Studio Express), the developer can still choose to program Windows applications using languages such as C++ and C#, which have been traditionally used for desktop application development. But now developers can also develop Windows apps using JavaScript, HTML, and CSSâ??a triad more commonly used for web development. This course introduces students to Windows 8 application development using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. It covers most of the objectives in the Microsoft Certified System Developer Exam 70-481: Essentials of Developing Windows Store Apps Using HTML5 and JavaScript. You can use this course in preparation for that exam.
