It's no coincidence that as VC++ turned 20, Ale turned 40, and Channel 9 turned 9. Or is it? What's the hidden meaning in the sequence 20 40 9? Certainly something special! Happy birthday to all!!! And a big thank you to all of you who use Visual C++.

Windows 8 HTML5 Metro Style App: How to create a small RSS reader in 30min (part 1/2)

Starting from scratch, we’re going to learn through these 2 tutorials how to build a small RSS reader with HTML5, CSS3 and WinJS, the Microsoft JavaScript framework for Windows 8 Metro Style Apps. We’ll try also to follow the Metro design guidelines by using Expression Blend 5. If everything goes fine, you should be able to follow these 2 articles in 30 minutes.

This first article will help you to create the welcome screen that will use a WinJS ListView control. This control will display all the blog posts recently published via nice thumbnails. The 2nd one will work on the detail view displayed when you’ll click on one of the items. At last, you’ll find a video at the end of this article playing in real-time the following steps as well as the final solution to download. See them as useful complementary resources if you need to clarify some parts of this article.

Pre-requisites: to follow these tutorials, you need first to:

1 – Download & install Windows 8 Release Preview on your machine: http://preview.windows.com
2 – Download & install Visual Studio 2012 RC Express for Windows 8: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/br229516

Note: If you’ve got a Mac, it works perfectly fine thanks to BootCamp or inside a virtual machine handled by Parallels for instance

Note 2: this article has been updated on 04/06/2012 to implement the changes in the UI & in the code between Windows 8 Consumer Preview and the Release Preview. In a general manner, if you need to migrate your application to RP, you should read this document: breaking changes document. In our case, the only impact where on the way to handle the XML elements returned by the XHR request. We’ve changed the selectors to switch from XPath via selectNodes to CSS selectors style via querySelectorAll.

Here is a brief summary of what we’re going to see in this article:

- Step 1: creating a blank application
- Step 2: creating the HTML & CSS base of our main page
- Step 3: first contact with Blend
- Step 4: loading the data with XHR and bind them to the ListView control
- Step 5: using a template and modifying the design with Blend
- Step 6: video demonstrating all the steps & source code to download

Note: these tutorials are based on the Tools for building Metro style apps session of the BUILD delivered by Chris Sell & Kieran Mockford. I’ve simply updated it for Windows 8 RP.

...

Windows 8 HTML5 Metro Style App: How to create a small RSS reader in 30min (part 2/2)

We’re now going to see how to display the details of each article. We will use for that a transition animation, we will play with the simulator and we will continue to discover Blend to use CSS3 Multi-columns for instance.

Like in the previous article, you’ll find a video as well as the source code to download at the end of the article.

This article is the second part of this one: Windows 8 HTML5 Metro Style App: How to create a small RSS reader in 30min (part 1/2)

During this article, we’ll see:

- Step 1: using the simulator
- Step 2: displaying the articles’ details
- Step 3: finishing the design of the detail view with Blend
- Step 4: video and source code to download

Some engineering insights and history related to IE9's Windows-capable design (runs close to the metal or takes advantage of the underlying hardware through native interactions with Windows...). IE9 runs closer to the metal than any other browser that runs on Windows. In some sense, IE9 runs directly through Windows. Surf on metal, my friends. Surf on metal.

Please file any bugs or suggestions on Connect.  

Mike Sampson (aka Sampy) has done some stellar work with the backend architecture and design of the next version of Channel 9, code named "Rev9," and this fifth version includes a revamped UI and restructured backend.

In this conversation (it's a long and deep one, so set aside some time—it's well worth it), Sampy takes us through how and why he designed the new Channel 9 architecture. "Rev9" appears to be a very scalable and modern system built on tried and true technologies and architectural patterns such as MVC 2.0, Unity (from P&P), NHibernate, Fluent NHibernate, Memcached, Enyim Managed Memcached driver, Azure – Fabric, Storage, Diagnostics, SQL Azure, xUnit (testing only), Live ID, Spark View Engine, Akismet (spam filtering service), AntiXSS, Tinymce, jQuery, and Silverlight.

Sampy's great work is simply astounding. I left his office feeling more confident than ever that Channel 9 will scale to the future and the experience of performance and reliability will be at an all time high. Thank you, Sampy, Duncan, Cara, Geoff, Clint, and Dan.

"Rev9" appears to be a very scalable and modern system built on tried and true technologies and architectural patterns such as MVC 2.0, Unity (from P&P), NHibernate, Fluent NHibernate, Memcached, Enyim Managed Memcached driver, Azure – Fabric, Storage, Diagnostics, SQL Azure, xUnit (testing only), Live ID, Spark View Engine, Akismet (spam filtering service), AntiXSS, Tinymce, jQuery, and Silverlight.Sampy's great work is simply astounding. I left his office feeling more confident than ever that Channel 9 will scale to the future and the experience of performance and reliability will be at an all time high. Thank you, Sampy, Duncan, Cara, Geoff, Clint, and Dan.

Adam Sampson (aka Sampy's younger brother) is a developer on the Windows Azure SDK team. He's done some very interesting experiments in/on Azure, as you'll see (in fact, he's known as the "guy who gets crazy stuff to run on Azure"). Apparently, MadSkillz are genetic constructs..

This is the first (and potentially last) episode in a series of brother-to-brother interviews on C9. Here, Sampy interviews Adam about what Adam is working on (Azure dev platform samples) and the brothers reveal the secret to their success in software development and more. Tune in.

Today’s launch includes several videos of Chinese developers who do incredible work for Microsoft and Windows, specifically. When you think about reliability, stability, scalability and performance of Windows 7, for example, the people who are highlighted today on CSDN Channel 9 were instrumental in making Windows 7 a super high quality release. Some of these talented engineers are also working on some really hard technical problems at the lowest levels of the system..

About CSDN:

CSDN is a popular online developer community and information portal. CSDN’s aim is to represent all software development technologies in a single portal. From C++ to C#, from Linux to Windows, from Eclipse to Visual Studio, CSDN has it all.

Working with Microsoft China and CSDN, a member of the Channel 9 extended family, has been a fantastic experience for the Channel 9 team and we are very excited to see how this pilot evolves!

You should check it out even if you don't speak Mandarin Smiley If you do speak Mandarin, well, you will meet some really smart, passionate and creative people - all with stories to tell.

This work along with improvements to our content strategy will enable us to bring Channels 8 and 10 content back into Channel 9.

We call this project Revolution 9 and when released it will consolidate Channels 8, 10 and Coding4Fun into Channel 9. The community aspects of Channel 8, will move into Microsoft.com/Student creating one place for students and Microsoft moving forward. TechNet Edge and Mix Online will stay exactly as they are, with no changes.

To find more information on why we’re making the changes on last week's This Week On Channel 9. It does a good job of walking through it in great detail. Over the coming weeks and months we’ll walk you through the experience and our progress towards launch.

Thanks again everyone who visits Channel 9 and our communities. We’re excited about what we have in store for the future and look forward to evolving Channel 9 together.

What would developers think of this non-corporate, free wheeling website designed by and for geeks and developers (and one great designer, David Shadle - designer of the 9 Guy and first iteration of Channel 9)? Did we do the right thing? Will Channel 9 be taken seriously? Are we crazy? Well, history has answered these questions and the next five years will be very interesting indeed. I thought I'd pay a visit to my friend, fellow Niner and co-conspirator Jeff Sandquist. I don't think I've ever really interviewed him. 5 years!!! Wow. Happy Birthday, Niners!!!
