So you want to have a bit of fun and write apps for mobile phones. Make a
million dollars. Retire to a beach on a tropical island and have drinks with
little umbrellas in them. For a while now the iPhone has been the obvious
choice but a .Net developer maybe getting into Objective-C has always seemed
a little too much effort?
Well, maybe it's not so hard. Craig Dunn is
going to run us through application development for the iPhone using MonoTouch,
and he should know something about it since he helped write the book! He’ll also likely have
a few copies as giveaways on the night as well.
And then there’s the new and shiny Windows Phone 7 which is almost here and
being talked up heavily at the moment. For us .NET developers it makes an
obvious choice as a target platform but is it worth bothering with? What do we
need for development on that platform? How do we get apps into the app store?
How do we make sexeh gamez for it? And so on. For the answers to that we’ll have
Luke Drumm.
This should make for an interesting night and might just get those creative
juices flowing so you can go write apps to generate a little extra cash in the
pocket, which you can then use to buy other gadgets to play with :-) What more
could you want?!
RSVP if you’re coming (as per usual), bring your friends and we’ll see you on
the night!
