How to Read This Book The knowledge in this book is hard won though years of personal experience and through lengthy discussions with friends and peers about their own experiences in mobile development. Mobile development is disciplined work but can be great fun. It is very rewarding to see a great application you built pop up and run on a mobile device that fits in your pocket. With technologies such as Microsoft's .NET Compact Framework and Visual Studio .NET, as well as competitive tools and runtime offerings from other venders, mobile device development can be very approachable. The best way to learn and experience these techniques is to put them to use and try them out along with your own ideas. |
