DownloadDuration: 13:22
Tidy is a "to-do list" prototype application that leverages a lot of the new features Windows Phone mango release. If you like the walk-through, the Windows Phone Mango training kit has hands-on-labs that show step-by-step instructions for building it. In the training kit, you will find the following (and other) labs:Local database hands-on-lab. Tidy uses SQL CE as its data store and the hands-on lab will show you how to attribute the object model to create LINQ to SQL mappings. How to create databases at run-time, and how to query the database. Alerts and Reminders hands-on-lab. Tidy allows you to create reminders for a task. The hands-on lab shows you how to query it a reminder exists, how to create and delete a reminder. Start Tile pinning hands-on-lab. Tidy allows you to pin projects. This way if your tasks are organized you can deep-link into project specific views and get the tasks for that specific project. Background Transfer hands-on-lab shows you how to use the new background transfer APIs to upload and download a backup of the database to your local machine. Background agents hands-on-lab shows you how to create background agents in Mango. The background agents check your location every 30 minutes and if you are nearby a location where tasks are due, it will prompt you a shell toast notification to remind you to complete the task while you are at that location. The background agent also demonstrates how to update the tiles from an agent – it checks tasks that are overdue and it updates the tile for the project with the count-.

Inside Windows Phone 19:Mango documentation
6/11/2011
DownloadDuration: 14:50
In this episode Luke Nyswonger, the doc lead for Windows Phone, does a walk-through of all the great improvements they made to the docs in the Mango beta release. Pay attention so you don't miss:A great "What's new" page that you can use to get to all the feature overviews, code-samples, etc.. The samples and how-to walkthroughs are now a bit more scenario oriented. For example, their sockets demo is a full blown tic-tac-toe game, their tiles sample has every possible tile option, etc. They moved the User experience Design guidelines from a PDF to an HTML format and they literally doubled the amount of content that went into the UX guidelines. They moved the certification requirements from a PDF to an HTML format, and they have included the test steps so you can ensure you test ahead of time (or if you fail certification you have repro steps). They have a very nice "developer resources page" in the apphub that aggregates all the content that Windows phone developers will need.
