Description

The Universal Windows Platform ships with almost 50 controls to help you build stellar user experiences on any device and any screen size. In this session, Scott introduces some of these controls as well as control patterns created from them. He also introduces data templates and control templates — two fundamentally important concepts that play a role in virtually every real-world UWP app.
