I have just been moved over to work within Windows Engineering here at Microsoft. I will be working on a team that is focusing on bringing developers back to Windows. Some of that will be UWP focused, some will be “legacy” apps (meaning WinForms, WPF, pretty much everything not a store app today).
So I am getting back to building a lot more apps that are not huge complex Azure systems! Hopefully that will mean more blog posts and source code I can share publicly.
I attended Xamarin Evolve a few weeks ago and will post a summary from my perspective (it was really good).
I posted a UWP Memory Helper utility class on Github last week. It is a really simple class to help you track memory usage while running your apps. I used to use this for my Windows Phone apps, but the utility didn’t work with UWP.
I also updated my Virtualized List to support Windows 10 UWP. It is a simple example showing how to build a virtualized list that you can databind in XAML and still get fast performance for scrolling.
So maybe interesting times are ahead where I will get to publish more blogs and contribute more open source. We shall see.
