The Windows Phone User Interface
Buddy James, Lori Lalonde · Apress eBooks · 2015
Applications that run on Windows Phone devices are referred to as Windows Phone apps . Microsoft released the Windows Phone 7 mobile operating system, which was the successor to Windows Mobile, in October 2010. Windows Phone 7 became popular among .NET developers because it enabled them easily to build and publish apps to a public app store. Windows Phone 7 app development leveraged the .NET Framework, which simplified the transition for .NET developers from desktop and web development to the mobile app development space. Developers could use either Silverlight or XNA with C# to build mobile apps, and they could release their apps to the Windows Phone Marketplace.
