In the landscape of mobile applications these days there are three main players: iOS, Android, and Windows Phone. While Windows Phone may be in a distant third place at the moment, it is definitely growing in popularity and provides an excellent opportunity for developers to capitalize on their skills. 

Our new course, Windows Phone 8 Development, will show you how to get started developing for Windows Phone, and will provide you with a solid foundation of knowledge in XAML, MVVM, and platform-specific features.

Tuts+ instructor Derek Jensen will teach you the basics of what it takes to build mobile applications for the Windows Phone 8.1 platform. You'll learn how to use XAML, how to handle user gestures on the Windows Phone, how to use the Model‑View-ViewModel Pattern, and more.

By the end, you'll be ready to start developing your own mobile applications for the Windows Phone.
