Slides from a presentation I gave at WPUG about the best practices for working pinned secondary tiles and deep linking

1. deep linking

2. what? Whatever you want

3. why?

4. how? varNewTileData = newStandardTileData{BackgroundImage= new Uri("Red.jpg"), Title = "Secondary Tile“}; ShellTile.Create(newUri("/Page2.xaml?from=tile”),NewTileData);

5. so?

6. Learn from the platform people music & video office

7. splashscreen

8. normal navigation NavigationContext.QueryString

9. think mini-apps

10. log in?

11. global view models ViewModelLocator

12. pinning/deep links not just everywhere copy existing behaviour no splash screen no home button log in / out beware global references and view models think “mini app”
