Right now I’m creating an application for WP7 and have recieved alot of feedback about creating a similar application (if not the same) for the desktop as well as the web.
I have a few question about migrating an application from WP7 to the desktop with silverlight, and to the web with silverlight because I know that the feature sets between them are somewhat similar as well different (ex Controls, Classes):
-
Are there resources on getting
started with this type of development
projects? -
What methods are available for accomplishing this kind of project, for example creating reusable code libraries?
-
Is it better to start of with one platform over the other?
-
Does VisualStudio have project templates designed for this type of development?
Keep in mind this is a first for me, so any tips, gotchas, references, or advice is appreciated.
Some resources:
