Oops! Microsoft did it Again! This time screwed
Windows Phone developers.
When I wrote my blog HTML
5 brings slow death to Silverlight and Flash I was just thinking about
Silverlight developers. I have done a lot of work on Silverlight building
several applications and learning it but when Microsoft added HTML 5 and CSS 3
support in Visual Studio 2012 (good thing), I knew Silverlight has a very
limited life ahead.
Then Microsoft
released Windows 8. Windows 8 also brought Metro
Style apps with it. That totally changed the game.
Today, Microsoft announced its new Windows Phone,
Windows Phone 8.
Guess who? This time, Windows
Phone developers got screwed. With all hardware and operating system
changes, Windows Phone developers may find them obsolete and end up learning
Metro Style apps if they want to continue with Windows Phone 8 development.
Windows Phone 8 now will run Windows 8
operating system and hence Metro Style apps.
