Windows 8 Developer Preview Metro style app samples

The Windows 8 Developer Preview Samples Gallery contains a variety of code samples that exercise the various new programming models, platforms, features, and components available for the BUILD conference.

These downloadable samples are provided as compressed ZIP files that contain a Visual Studio Express (BUILD release) solution (SLN) file for the sample, along with the code pages, assets, and metadata necessary to successfully compile and run the sample.

For more information on the programming models, platforms, languages and APIs demonstrated in this sample, please refer to the guidance, tutorials and reference provided in the Windows 8 Developer Preview documentation available in the BUILD-specific version of the Windows Developer Center.

This sample is not the final shipping version of the sample, and is provided “as-is” in order to indicate or demonstrate the early functionality of the programming models and feature APIs for a forthcoming version of Windows.
