WinRT Revealed, 9781430245841 (1430245840), Apress, 2012
Windows 8 provides a new and exciting platform for developers. This coming version of Windows promises to run on new hardware, such as tablets, as well as existing laptops and desktops. Microsoft has developed a new layer for accessing and leveraging system resources, including the operating system services. The new Windows Runtime (WinRT) is this layer.

Windows 8 application development is an exciting topic these days. Windows 8 introduces WinRT, the API for accessing the operating system and the underlying hardware where Metro applications run. WinRT can be accessed through multiple development languages, including C++, .NET languages and JavaScript. Developers from all backgrounds can use their skills to build beautiful and fast Windows 8 applications. 

Author Michael Mayberry takes you through a quick overview of this new addition in WinRT Revealed and will get you started quickly in developing Windows 8 applications in this new environment. Written at a brisk space and a no-nonsense style, you'll find exactly what you need to understand what's different in WinRT compared to what you know, and pointers on how to develop solid WinRT applications even before Windows 8's release.
