You can create classes that contain code you wish to share across many projects, such as shared business logic, and then reference those classes from different types of projects, including those that target .NET Framework 4 and above, Silverlight 4 and above, Windows Phone 7 and above, Windows 8, and XBox 360. In this episode, Daniel Plaisted introduces us to this very exciting technology. Want more information on portable class libraries?

The TwitterSearch demo is from the MvvmCross project.  Currently, the portable library support is in the vNext branch, so that's where I took it from.  I had to make a few changes to get the Metro style app to work on VS 2012 RC.

I've just uploaded source to the Gordian's Knot Puzzle Solver to github.

My handle on twitter is @dsplaisted if you'd like to ask questions there or follow me.

  Many resources for the use of multicore been incorporated into the interfacing, I am now inciando tests with Asp.net and javascript 4 more until this moment I am very satisfied with the product.
