1 first need to prepare a app package

Open VS solution, and double click the package.appxmanifest file

Can configure the application in several tabs, it seems that it's necessary to set a splash screen image on C1>visual Assets tab (for me it should be 1240x600 pix)

From the Packaging tab, you can enter a friendly package name and display name. The version is set to 1.0.0 as default. The build number would auto grow with your creation times.

The Save the file has made the necessary edits for your app.

Now let's start to create the apppackage.

In Solution Explorer, choose one start up project, right-click and choose Store,Create App Packages.

In Create Your Packages Wizard, choose No unless you want to upload the app to the Windows store and then C Lick Next.

In the Select and Configuration Package dialog,

Select always in Generate app bundle ListBox, select all three architecture configurations (x86,x64 A nd ARM), no matter choose Debug or release.

Click Create to generate the Appxbundle package.

Provides basic configuration and device management capabilities which allows you add/remove applications and review the RE Al time performance of Windows IoT Device. Also you can use it for diagnosis on the device and catch some error logs.

Set up Connection

An easy to install application

The above is talking what to use web-based Device management to install a app package. However, there is an easier. You can just use VS to help install the app. Actually, once configure the debug architecture and remote machine to DEP Loy the packages, it has already installed the application into the remote device.

Let ' s has a look. Make sure your app was removed from Raspberrypi2.

Choose ARM and Remotemachine, input IP address and select None, click Deploy solution.

Open web-based Device Management, you can see the application have been installed. Now you can configure it as default start up application if you want.

Note:for only deploying application into RaspberryPi2 (ARM based), you can simply use VS. Help you install the package, If you want to create a app for all devices, follow the web-based device management instruction. (Step1 and 2)

PostScript: Toss a few days, finally transplanted some WPF code to the UWP, although all are c#+xaml, it seems similar, but the difference is really big, modified a lot of places, the original program used to mef,module,region and so on the concept of prism, Prism.windows and Prism.core for the universal Windows app are not supported, using prism.unity instead of the original MEF (seemingly MEF2 support UWP) Others have to copy the prism source code first , changed the part, finally can run the first interface. Speaking of the original WPF program, its layout and workflow is also quite complex, are configurable, expand the region of the prism, the day without the GBP constraint, I put the framework research, sent out.
