Sela Developer Practice–December 2011

Announcing – Sela Developer Practice conference (third time) will take time at Crown Plaza hotel (Tel Aviv, Israel) and the SELA headquarters (Bnei-Brak, Israel) on December 4-8, 2011.

This year the conference will focus mostly on Windows 8 and other hot announcements made during //BUILD conference earlier this year at Anaheim, CA.

During Sela Developer Practice (SDP) this year, Sela experts and special guests from Microsoft Israel (Guy Burstein and Maor David-Pur) will talk about new features in Windows 8, Visual Studio 2011, .NET Framework v4.5 and other hot technology topics. First conference day will be a day full of keynote sessions and next 4 days will be hosted as 22 full-day tutorials on a wide variety of topics.

During first day I will present a session about Live Tile and Notifications on Windows 8 (look for “Engaging Users with Live Tiles and Notifications” session at agenda) and then will full-day tutorial about Windows Phone v7.5 “Mango” (look for “Windows Phone Mango” tutorial day at agenda).

The registration is open! If you’re considering attending, act fast – last time most of tutorial days sell out a few weeks before the conference.

See you @SDP11

My Session at UNETAPlus

Few hours ago I delivered a session about creating Silverlight/XNA hybrid applications for Windows Phone Mango. I like to thank all the participants – you were great and I had a great pleasure to present for such quality audience. I loved the questions and the conversation after the session.

The slides deck I used for presentation can be download from the here.

As promised, the demo applications also published and can be downloaded from the following locations:

• Demo #1 is here.
• Demo #2 is here.
  • This application is also published on Windows Phone Marketplace and if you are happy owner of Windows Phone Mango phone it could be found and downloaded from here.

Thanks and stay tuned for more updates,

Alex
