I want to write my first application for mobile phones,and I just opened Visual Studio 2012 Ultimate and I'm wondering where should I start. I noticed that there is no New Project->Smart devices like it was in VS2012. What kind of project should I use? I think about the asp.net mvc 4 but what I want to make it's not really a web-based application,I want something local,with local database.
Install Windows Phone SDK and then you should have it under
Templates -> Visual C# -> Windows Phone

I want to develop a Windows 10 Modern App, but Visual Studio 2015 is super slow on my pc.
My question is, is it possible to use Visual Studio 2012 and in the end publish this app in the Windows Store?
No, it is not possible to develop the UWP apps using the Visual Studio 2012. Please see the Requirements in Develop apps for the Universal Windows Platform (UWP).
Here is the list of software that you need:
Windows 10
Visual Studio 2015. Make sure that the Universal Windows App Development Tools are selected from the optional features list. Without these tools, you won't be able to create your universal apps.
I need to create windows store application using c#.I need Pre-requisite(like OS version and VS studio Version) for developing the App.
Any Suggestion regarding this would be appreciated.
You need to install Visual Studio Community Edition on a Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 OS.
Then create new project and find Visual C# -> Store Apps. Choose your desire project template (Universal, Windows or Windows Phone) and there you go.
I am trying to create sample application for Windows 8 Embedded Handheld or Windows Store App, for that I have following configuration.
Configuration:
1. Windows 8 64Bit OS
2. Visual Studio 2012 Express Edition With Update 4 Installed
3. Windows Phone 8 SDK, Downloaded From This Link.
4. Windows 8 Embedded Handheld SDK, Downloaded From This Link.
But when I start my Visual Studio I don't see any option for Creating Windows Store App as Given in This video.
Also I am not able to see installed Windows 8 Phone SDK and W8EH SDK in, about screen of the Visual Studio 2012.
UPDATE
It will be very helpful if we have list of all the supported versions of Visual Studio with there targeted use, like for Desktop/Mobile(or 'Phone' it is also one more confusion)/Handheld/Embedded/Store, else it is very confusing for the beginners to decide which version of Visual Studio to use for development of Embedded/Handheld Application development.
You have the wrong edition of VS Express. You have the edition for Windows Desktop, which is for creating traditional Windows desktop applications. You need the edition for Windows, which is for creating Store apps that target the Modern UI.
I am trying to learn C# with XAML but some how i am not able to create a sample app.
I am following few tutorials on internet,
but as given in the tutorial i need to select Blank App (XAML) template with Visual C#.
But in my Visual Studio 2013 Express Edition i don't get option for:
Installed->Templates->Visual C#->Windows Store->Blank App (XAML)
I have only:
Installed->Templates->Visual C#->Windows
And no Blank App (XAML) option.
Do i need to install anything else to get this option?
Also What are Windows Store applications?
UPDATE:
- My Visual Studio 2013 Express is installed on Windows 7 Machine.
- I am trying to create just a sample application using C# and XAML not specific for Windows Store app.
Could it be that you are not using Windows 8/8.1 which is required for App development. You can however create XAML/WPF windows desktop programs but then you would have to find tutorials specific for WPF.
I think you have installed Visual Studio Express for Windows Desktop, instead of for Windows.
You can download it here: http://www.visualstudio.com/downloads/download-visual-studio-vs#d-express-windows-8
Ok, here's my issue - rather simple, though I'm not sure how to go about it (and avoid downloading tens of unnecessary gigabytes).
I've downloaded and installed "Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows Phone" (wpsdkv80_enu1).
I'm wondering what I should download/install in order to fully support development of Desktop apps, or plain Windows 8 applications. (apart from Windows phone, I mean).
Any ideas? (preferably with links?)
With Visual Studio Express products, there's one Visual Studio for each kind of application:
Windows Phone
Desktop
Windows 8 Store
Web
So you have to install multiple Visual Studio Express, using different versions.
For desktop: Express 2012 for Windows Desktop
See http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/products/visual-studio-express-products#product-express-summary
You're going to have to download a new ISO (or two). Just make VERY sure you download the right ISO. There is one for Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows 8, which allows you to develop Windows Store apps and you need a developer account and license for it. There's ALSO a Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows Desktop, which allows you to develop applications like on Windows 7.
