Book Description

Microsoft Press is pleased to offer the 2nd edition of Kraig Brockschmidt's in-depth ebook on writing Windows Store apps using HTML, CSS3, and JavaScript. The book's primary focus will be on applying web technologies within the Windows platform, highlighting its unique considerations, rather than exploring the intricacies of the web standards themselves.

The author operates on the assumption that the reader is already at least somewhat conversant with these standards. While they will cover more salient areas like the CSS grid, which is central to app layout, they trust that the reader is capable of finding appropriate references for other topics.

Nevertheless, the text is enriched by insights gained from working directly with real-world developers on their applications. As a member of the Windows Ecosystem team, the author and their colleagues have been on the front lines, bringing the first apps to the Windows Store. This experience involved writing code, investigating bugs, and conducting design, code, and performance reviews with the Windows engineering team. One of the author's chief goals for this book is to distill that deep, firsthand understanding and make it available to a much broader audience of developers.

This book is published as open-access, which means it is freely available to read, download, and share without restrictions.

If you enjoyed the book and would like to support the author, you can purchase a printed copy (hardcover or paperback) from official retailers.
