    Windows 8: Storing JSON Data for Conference Buddy

    Once we gather the data, we’d like to save it to a format that will be consistent across Windows 8 C# and Windows 8 Javascript, as well as Windows 8 Phone. For now, we’ve settled on JSON as a common persistence and wire-format. While JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation, there are good libraries for converting .NET objects to JSON and back.

    Windows 8: Adding An AppBar to Conference Buddy

    In the most recent posting, we looked at a wire-frame that illustrated some of the data we’ll be collecting. The user fills in the fields, but then how does the user indicate Save or Cancel?

    Announcing RadControls for Windows Phone Q3 2012 SP1: Revamped DataForm, ListPicker enhancements and many more

    Q3 2012 SP1 comes as a milestone in the development of RadDataForm. This release introduces significant improvements and enhancements in the control making it entirely revamped. The changes are important because they are inspired by our real-life experience with the control while integrating it in our Tasks application for Windows Phone and other smaller projects.

    Get Started: Creating My First Working ASP.NET AJAX RadControls Application

    My name is Jeffrey T. Fritz, and I am a developer who has been working with Asp.Net since the 1.0 days of 2002. I’ve built web applications of all sizes for all form factors, and included localization features in those applications. As an experienced developer, I’m also a rookie with Telerik’s ASP.Net AJAX controls. To assist other who might be in a similar situation, I’m going to write a series of posts here that share my experiences in getting started with the ASP.Net AJAX controls. I’ve primarily used the default controls that Microsoft distributes with Visual Studio, and thought to myself that using these controls would be a similar experience.
