Designing websites has been a common practice for decades. With
Windows 8 Consumer Preview, designers and developers can use the web
technologies they are familiar with, including HTML5, Cascading Style Sheets,
Level 3 (CSS3), and JavaScript, to build Metro style apps for Windows. Here
we explore how to expose the capabilities of a website to make it a great Metro
style app for Windows 8 and show ways to provide additional value,
personalization, and richer experiences using features of the Windows 8
platform.
Our aim is to help designers and developers reimagine their websites as Metro
style apps.
