Ahoy!

The April 2016 Meetup of The Windows Developer User Group is scheduled for March 21st from 6PM to 8PM @ Improving Ohio Office. Please see details below & kindly RSVP.

Topic:
A Multi-Platform Mobile World with Xamarin!

Abstract:
You have this great idea for an app that will revolutionize the mobile landscape, making you so much money that you can buy an island. First question: what platform will you build it on? In other words, what huge groups of customers will you ignore? You shouldn’t have to make that decision. There has to be a better way!

With Xamarin, you don’t have to. Xamarin allows you to create one mobile application and can be deployed across the three major mobile platforms – iOS, Android, and Windows, natively. All the while, using the comforts of the .NET framework and C#. In this talk I will show you what Xamarin is and how to build, test, and deploy one application across the platforms. When we’re done, you’ll have a solid understanding of how to create a fully featured, standards-compliant, store-accepted application without the headache of maintaining three redundant codebases.

You have no excuse now not to get started creating the next great mobile app! Just in time after all the Xamarin VS integration news coming out of //BUILD – it’s all FREE!
