Windows Phone 7-My first App

I am kind of excited to install Windows phone SDK and developing my first Windows Phone App.( Simple Hello World-although I typed my name).

I started of by downloading SDK, installing it and giving it a shot.

One important point about the SDK is the fact that it contains Microsoft Expression Blend 4, that is installed as a part of the SDK along with the Windows Phone Emulator.

However, WindowsphoneGeek can be a good resource to start with and what's even better is that they are providing a Free -E book.

I think this is too vague of a post, however I am too excited to think about it currently.

Till next we connect...
Happy Reading....

This might be true for many other developers who are specialized in Web Applications and  have lesser exposure to windows development. As a breather to all those folks, I am here exploring this class with sincere hopes that it will provide a good insight to the class.   ElementHost as described in MSDN is “a Windows Forms control that can be used to host a Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) element” is located under System.Windows.Forms.Integration namespace . The members of this class have details available at this location . Why is this Class used? ElementHost control is used to place a WPF UIElement on to the Windows Forms control or form.
