If you’re a .NET developer, you may have thought about building an app for the Windows Store, using the Metro/Modern UI design. However, you may not have completed your project for various reasons.
Sometimes, we just get busy with other things and completely abandon our side projects. Or sometimes, we realize that there is too much work to be done with the front-end or back-end code.

ORIGINAL POST:
If you’ve read my last post about Xbox One indie game development, you can guess that I’ve returned from ID@Seattle by now. I’m under NDA, so I cannot reveal any confidential information that was presented at the event.
However, as I’ve mentioned in the aforementioned blog post, developers have been encouraged to build games for Windows 8 using C++ and DirectX. So, where should one start?
To celebrate Independence Day, we’re talking to an Independent developer who’s building an unofficial Facebook app for Windows 8/RT to counter Steve Ballmer’s announcement of an official Facebook app. Let the downloads begin!
Q: Hi Ritesh, welcome to WakeUpAndCode.com! As I asked another developer in my first Q&A, do you wake up and code every morning?
A: I wish I could wake up before 10 AM. I am a night person. I like working at night until 2-3 AM. It has become a kind of habit for me to work until late night. Nighttime gives me more focus and no distractions.
