I am little bit confused now a days. I have one year of experience in .Net MVC. I have done one whole project. My key skills are MVC4,LINQ,EF,Jquery,WCF. I am about to finish this project. In my current company they are pushing to Sharepoint apps. I am very new to sharepoint environment and I dont have basic knowledge also. Since I am good in javascript and jquery they are pushing me to Sharepoint apps because sharepoint apps will utilize most of the client scripts. I am confused because without knowing basics of sharepoint is it good practice to move for sharepoint 2013 or 2016 apps? I would like to have some suggestions on this. Thank you all.
Client side scripting are gaining lot of traction these days
with CSOM and REST api in SharePoint, you can completely avoid server side coding and complete an entire project using just Javascript and jQuery.
Also you can use all the frameworks like, Angular, bootstrap that you use in any normal web application development
SharePoint will not be too alien for a .Net developer. You can easily relate and learn stuff. Like instead of a webservice call you can call rest api and get results etc
So don't worry about moving to SharePoint/Office 365. You can use StackExchange dedicated for SharePoint and you can use it for your future queries

"Do Not Disturb" feature in iOS 6 How to implement?
(3 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I cannot find a good tutorial to turn on Do Not Disturb for iOS7. I found some stuff that dealt with iOS6 and iOS5, but they included deprecated and outdated material. In short, how could I programmatically turn on Do Not Disturb? I have seen apps like Call Bliss and am wondering how that works.
To be clear to any other visitors to this page.
There is no public API that manages the "Do Not Disturb" feature. There are also no frameworks that can achieve this.

I'm looking for books, online tutorials, articles, training videos and any kind of resource to learn XAML for Windows Store App. I want to master XAML to build powerful Apps. For that reason I will appreciate any helpful information.
Keep it coming!

I really like following series
31 Days of Windows 8
Also I think Generation App have some good resources and even offers free 1 On 1 app consultation.
One of the best resource for me have been Windows 8 app samples, it is really helpful to use these examples, although not all the examples are straight forward.
My book, Building Windows 8 Apps with C# and XAML (I'm avoiding posting a "vanity link" on purpose, but you should find it easily by searching on the title) has an entire chapter devoted to XAML that I believe is quite thorough.
I can recommend this book from Charles Petzold:
Programming Windows®, 6th Edition
It contains basic guides, how to use and write XAML code, how to work with the page layout, use styles and templates, etc. Currently it's available as a preview for discounted price. The final book is expected at the beginning of the next year.
I think the very best resource for learning a new tech is to write some code with it. The most helpful learning mechanism that I used was the Contoso Cookbook hands-on lab, which walks you through building most of the new features for Windows Store apps. You can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29854. Choose the Win8CS.Setup.exe download for C# and XAML.
You will need Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8; you can download it free from http://aka.ms/JenVS2012 (halfway down the page, in blue).
Finally, Generation App contains a program designed to help you learn to write a Windows Store app in 30 days. Each day you will get an email that gives you the next step, so you can step-by-step learn to build an app. There are also free design consultations and tech support available through the program.

Using live tiles inside a windows 8 metro application
Could be a third party tool provider. If not is there a way to customize it to include live tiles inside the app?How?
The actual "live tiles" implementation is not available inside the App, but you can simulate them and their behaviour.
I think Callisto might be what you want, it's really easy to use.

Is there already a Google+ API?
Is it possible to develop application for Google Plus? If so, how? I did not find any information about that.
Does anyone have any information regarding this?
Please share if you have.
Thanks in advance.
The Google+ API has now been released. 1.
Thankfully, none exist.
Google+ is in beta, so nobody is really using it (except me :P) and Google hasn't said anything about releasing any sort of developer's guide. But I think one will exist, sooner or later.
