Getting Started with Windows 8 development (i) developing the first Metro style application using xaml+c#

First we need to install Windows 8 and VS2012, download the address: http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-CN/windows/apps/br229516/

Then we open VS2012, select Windows Metro Style, and then choose to create the blank app project as shown below:

The new completed project structure is as follows:

We drag a button and a ListBox into the interface, set the button events and the DataTemplate of the ListBox, as follows XAML code:

<grid background= "{StaticResource Applicationpagebackgroundthemebrush}" >   
        <button Content= "button" Name= "Button1" horizontalalignment= "left" margin= "135,124,0,0" verticalalignment= "Top
                " click= "Button1_Click"/ >   
        <listbox horizontalalignment= "left" Name= "ListBox1" height= "margin="
                 Verticalalignment= "Top" width= "140" >   
            <ListBox.ItemTemplate>   
                <DataTemplate>   
                    < TextBlock  width= "text=" {Binding itemname} "/>                     

  
                </DataTemplate>   
            </listbox.itemtemplate >   
        </ListBox>   
    </Grid>
