St. Louis Windows Phone Development Workshop. Nokia will be there, how about you?

We've got time for one more reminder on the June 22, 2012 St. Louis Windows Phone Development Workshop. Nokia Developer Ambassador Rich Dunbar will be leading the workshop. If you're in the St. Louis area or happened to be visiting the area, this sounds like a great opportunity to network with other developers and get some help building your app.

The workshop will run from 5:30 p.m. until around 9:00 p.m. and will be held at the Microsoft Offices in St. Louis.

The goal of the workshop is to help developers get started on their first Windows Phone app. Nokia will be sponsoring the event and will provide pizza and beverages.  We will be providing a few WPCentral Store gift certificates to give away and we're still crossing our fingers that Nokia will have a few door prizes to give away as well.  

Attendees will need to bring their own laptop and have the necessary development tools installed. You can find a full list of the tools that you'll need here in the Windows Phone Central Forums discussion (opens in new tab). Registration is required (so enough pizza is ordered) for the workshop and you can find that easy process here at GroupSpaces (opens in new tab).

  • I'm sure all the Nokia diehards will be there
  • Well, I certainly hope so. I've worked diligently on this meetup and I know it's going to be a success.  Devs and non-devs are equally welcomed.  All I ask is that you sign up on the GroupSpaces page.  Thanks!
  • Guess you didn't catch my drift
  • Was that your drift I smelled? Broccoli?
  • Can't wait!
  • Only US everytime, I wish I could go there. Com'on help some Asian countries too.
  • Here, in France, the dev community organizes today his startup event, in the MS headquarter in Paris. We'll probably have some highlights about the 7.8, and wp8.
  • Genfa, does the Paris dev community have a Twitter account?
  • Nokia does events everywhere
  • I really wish there was a SoCal meetup.  Would love to meet other devs in my area.
  • Make one. That's what I did.
  • "Nokia will be there, how about you?"
    Not if you insist on using Comic Sans. ;)
     
  • It is great to see meetups like this happen, especially considering the fact that it is purely fan-based. Yes, Rich Dunbar will be infusing Nokia into it, but he would likely do that for nearly anyone in the Midwest US once someone takes the initiative to set something up. People just need to make it happen themselves. Free pizza doesn't just appear after a whiney blog post comment is made! ;-)
  • hopefully this doesn't turn into a complainafest  2012 about why the Lumia can't have WP 8 update..  
  • It will not. I won't put up with it.  There's nothing we can do about it anyway. It's a done deal.
  • Was a great meeting here in St Louis! Great turn out and a lot of great information!!!
