Mango Jump Start (10): Tiles & Notifications on Windows Phone

CODE for this SESSION

SLIDES for this SESSION

Microsoft MVPs Rob Miles and Andy Wigley are back! The "Building Applications for Windows Phone "Mango" Jump Start" was hosted by Microsoft Learning as a follow-up to last year's Windows Phone 7 Jump Start sessions. Mobile application developers rave about the fast-paced, demo-rich, real-world and often-times humorous approach Rob and Andy use to deliver this timely content. Now that "Mango" has made such a huge splash in the industry, we've asked them to put together another great course.

Andy illustrates how to best leverage the Tile and App UI in module nine. This section covers key components like Live Tiles, as well as how to use multiple tiles from a single application. This session wraps up with more demonstrations on how to update a Live Tile from a background agent and Push Notifications.
