Windows 10 Universal Windows Platform (UWP) development with C# and
XAML carries a lot of similarities with developing Windows Presentation
Foundation (WPF) applications. Well, they both use XAML and C#. Many
of your existing skills with user interfaces (UIs) and program code can be
leveraged for Windows 10 UWP apps. But there are a lot of differences, as
well. The Universal Windows Platform is the major difference between
UWP applications and WPF applications. An application written on the
UWP can run on whatever hardware implements that functionality, which
includes Xbox, Surface, PC, mobile, and even the Hololens. Apps are
deployed through a central store (as opposed to click-once deployment or
Microsoft Installer packages).
Not a WPF developer? No worries! This book will take you through
everything you need to know to build Windows 10 UWP apps.
