The Universal APP (hereinafter referred to as UAP) is a new concept for most people, because with Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1, this concept has been made, presumably meaning: You write a code that is common to all platforms running Windows. For now, Pc/surface/windowsphone can do this, and Xbox can do it quickly.
But when it came to the development of Windows Phone, many people would find it confusing to use the Windows Runtime SDK that UAP relies on, or Silverlight?
Children who are familiar with Wpf/silverlight may have noticed that Microsoft is no longer upgrading the technology, but you can still choose to use Silverlight to develop apps on wp7/8/8.1. UAP is an SDK for WP8.1 and above, so it can be understood that the Windows Runtime SDK is a trend that has been established. To continue to maintain the Silverlight app, no problem, you can continue to upgrade your app. But if you want to make a new app, it's highly recommended to use the UAP framework for development, and maybe someday you'll want to put your phone app on Xbox.
The link to UAP on MSDN is here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/library/windows/apps/dn609832.aspx. The entry URL is this: HTTP://DEV.WINDOWS.COM/ZH-CN, you can change zh-cn for en-us to see the English original.
Then click on "Develop" above:
Then click on the "Steps" above, you can enter the UAP development document of the total entrance, suitable for developer review. Designer can review the design page on the left.
Many bloggers in the Cnblogs family have mentioned this thing, such as: http://www.cnblogs.com/sonic1abc/p/3772693.html, thank you Wang Bobo Lord.
You can take a look at the full understanding of whether the technology/framework is in line with your personal interests or business interests, and then decide if you want to follow up on our next series of posts.
