Course Description
This course gives an introduction to all needed topics for getting started with the application development for Windows 10 IoT Core devices. It is the course that I would like to have had when I started to get interest in Windows 10 IoT Core application development. Throughout the course you learn
how to set up all needed tools like on your developer PC,
how to set up a target device, which is a Raspberry Pi in this course.
Furthermore, you learn
the basics of programming foreground and background applications in C++,
and how to package your application for distribution.
The final section of the course explains the usage of typical developer tools like SSH or FTP that will be helpful throughout your development activities.
The whole course is organized into individual sections that have a dedicated focus on one of the topics learning topics mentioned above. Each lecture within the section starts with a clear description of the lecture goal and is followed by a compact video presentation and description. All the videos are prepared such that they could be followed with you sitting in front of your developer machine and replicating the presented content. Each lecture closes with a brief summary.
Since Windows 10 IoT Core is targeted to embedded devices, part of the course makes use of some electronic components and circuitry. These are
a Raspberry Pi, SD card, power supply, network access,
a breadboard, an LED, a push button, some jumper wires.
To learn the basics about Windows 10 IoT Core application development it is not absolutely necessary to have these components at hand. However, to get most out of this course I recommend to have these components at hand.
Thanks a lot for your interest in this course. Let me know if you have any questions and hope to see you in the course then!

Simple, direct and precise. Helped me a lot shedding some light on a topic a knew nothing and needed I lot! Thank you!!!

Tutta pratica, nessuna spiegazione dei perchè. Utile se già avete competenze di programmazione C++ (e anche un po' di hw), ma non sperate in spiegazioni delle librerie.

this course is pretty old and as off now it could definitely use some updates
By Art Jones on 2/17/2020
This is a great course and the instructor teaches very well! The only issue is that the software code for two lessons part 1 and 2 of (HelloHeaderWorld) are not provided. Therefore, I code not test the code. Is it possible to email me the code or to send me a link or to update the course to provide a link. Thank you, Art

As a first timer this was really well structured and easy to follow
By William Basser on 12/7/2019
The course is sufficient, however, in this last step, the app will not build because the button clock event has not been generated
By Samrat Barat on 10/18/2019
Yes, it is. I am a beginner and wanted the walkthrough first before delving in . Your way of delivering the lecture is marvelous, clear and crisp instructions for a newbie to get hands dirty!
By Robert Carlson on 3/12/2019
I like that it is thorough. I play it at 1.5 speed, but stop when I need the details, so I am glad they are there.
