Build a Windows 8 Store App in a Day!

Be What's Next... 

Windows 8 is here and apps are waiting to be written. Come for a full day of creating Windows 8 Store apps. There will be some discussions about what you can do, but the goal for the day is to have YOU coding. If you don't have an app idea or something you're already developing, several labs will be provided for you to get hands on experience. Teaming up with others is always an option too.

Did everyone see that 40 MILLION copies of Windows 8 have been sold so far?  And everyone of them have the Windows Store on it -- and consumers are hungry for apps!  That's some potentially big $$$ for developers.

On that note --- ONLY a few days until our awesome FULL DAY Friday event!

Want to make sure everyone who wants to do this can -- space is limited -- sign up now. :)

See you soon.
