VENUE CHANGE: Please note that the venue for the May session will be at the Waterloo Public Library, 35 Albert Street in the James J Brown Auditorium.
Session Overview
If you have used a Windows Phone, Windows 8, various Microsoft web sites or the new XBOX Dashboard then you’ve already been immersed in it but you may not realize what it is. Microsoft’s new design language called Modern UI is fresh, bold and very distinct. The Windows 8 and Windows Phone experience is driven through the Modern UI design language and as such Modern UI is of strategic importance to Microsoft. In this session you will learn how Modern UI drives an immersive user experience, how Modern UI was created and what ultimately what it is and isn’t.
