Phone Apps Unlimited
Mark Rendle.NET, Thursday 17:00
Writing apps for mobile devices can be reminiscent of coding 20 years ago; there are limited resources and often limited APIs. But unlike 20 years ago, we have access to unlimited resources through the internet. In this .NET-based talk, I’ll look at how to bridge that gap between phones or tablets and the Azure cloud, to store data, run “background” processes, and do things not permitted by phone APIs or the dreaded Terms & Conditions.
