Microsoft & Nokia. Internet Explorer 11: “Don’t call me IE” This past week, Microsoft officially unveiled the first preview of Internet Explorer 11 for Windows 8.1[1].
Doing so put to rest a whirlwind of rumors based on leaked versions of the much-maligned web browser. We now know some very important details about Internet Explorer 11, including its support for WebGL, prefetch, prerender, flexbox, mutation observers, and other web standards. Perhaps more interestingly, though, is what is not in Internet Explorer 11. For the first time in a long time, Microsoft has actually removed features from Internet Explorer. The user-agent string has also changed. User-agent changes The user-agent string for Internet Explorer 11 is shorter than previous versions and has some interesting changes: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; Trident/7.0; rv 11.0) like Gecko Compare this to the Internet Explorer 10 user-agent string (on Windows 7): Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 10.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/6.0) document.all and friends Conclusion References.

Crear aplicaciones para Windows Phone con Windows Phone App Studio. El fracaso de Windows RT es una buena noticia. Durante los últimos dos días hemos estado muy atentos a las grandes novedades que anunció Microsoft durante la que es su mayor conferencia anual dirigida al software y el desarrollo de productos, la Build 2013.
En ella, vimos hacerse oficial la primera gran actualización de su renovado sistema operativo, Windows 8.1 (que ya analizamos a fondo), además, presentaron grandes novedades para desarrolladores, sobre su propuesta de Cloud Computing y pare de contar. Sin embargo, la ausencia del que fuera uno de los más importantes productos del 2012 para la empresa, nos da mucho que pensar y analizar. El fracaso de Windows RT parece ser inminente, aunque Microsoft no lo reconozca. Y esto, es una buena noticia. Sergio Loscialo's Blog : Windows 8 GridView and Variable-Sized Items. The GridView control is one of the most used layout controls within Windows 8 Store applications.
By using the Grid App project template with Visual Studio 2012, your first page will look similar to the following: While this looks great, what if you’d like to create a items that vary in size? Something like the following: This type of layout is possible using the GridView with very little extra work. There are multiple methods for accomplishing this task; some easier than others, some with more code than Xaml. One way would be to subclass the GridView control and put in the necessary plumbing.
Another way would be to follow Andrej Torzon’s advice using attached properties, reflection and a binding helper. My solution, however, was to minimize the extra code by using the capabilities already present in the GridView. Step 1 is to create a new ItemsPanelTemplate for the GridView (I like to create separate resources, but this could be embedded in the GridView Xaml itself). Build a Hybrid App for Windows Phone 8 using appMobi - DaveDev. Via Davedev.net… If you’re a web developer focused on HTML5 like me then chances are you’ve looked into how to port your web apps to one of the App Marketplaces out there.
I recently sat down with appMobi’s Developer Evangelist, Andrew Smith, to chat about how Web Developers can create Hybrid Apps which run on iOS, Android and Windows. Due to the popularity of that interview I’ve asked Andrew to guest post here on how you can get started! Via Andrew… Smartphones running mobile apps are spreading quickly, just like Websites did in the 90’s. What is a Hybrid Mobile App? The key to creating a mobile app that is written once but runs anywhere is the concept of the hybrid mobile app.
Native applications are written specifically for a particular operating system of the device it is meant to run on. On the other hand, mobile Web apps are server-side apps that run within a smartphone’s Web browser. Using D3JS in a Windows 8 App Store app. This article shows how to use D3JS in a windows 8 app store application.
As we will see there are only minor changes needed to get at nice interactive website build with D3 running in a windows 8 app store application. The website becomes completely local on the windows 8 computer. For me this is an amazing realization and it might be one reason why Microsoft has added the HTML5/Javascript application option for writing app store apps. The door is open! Here is my code example, I highlight the steps that are needed to convert this web page from Mike Bostock to a windows 8 app store application below.
Using Visual Studio 2012 create a new windows 8 app store Html5/JS project. Open the source for the webpage and look for these files will have to go into your js folder inside your win 8 app project and be included into the home.html page of the app store app. Into the home.js you insert the code from the websites script in the ready: Windows 8: It's the Applications, Stupid! Word for Windows 1.0, 1989 In the end, operating systems are merely a means to an end.
Nobody runs Windows to run Windows, or OS X to run OS X, or Linux to run Linux. They run them to get stuff done, and they get most of that stuff done in applications. I’ve been pondering that fact as I’ve been processing the news about Windows 8, which Microsoft showed in public for the first time this week at the D9 conference. It’s got both a radically new touch-centric interface and the one I already am thinking of as “Windows Classic”–a duality that brings to mind the days when most people ran both DOS apps and Windows 3.x ones. Windows 8 is a giant-sized, risky, fascinating bet–but in the end, it’s the apps that are going to matter. During the D9 demo, both Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher brought up Office. It’s a huge question. Here’s AllThingD’s video of the demo: I imagine that the real answer to Walt and Kara’s queries is that yes, of course, Microsoft is going to reimagine Office for Windows 8.
