Windows 10 RTM Release - July 2015
Windows 10 Samples Release
This release contains the Universal Windows Platform samples for APIs in the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 10 at RTM. These code samples were created with the Universal Windows templates available in Visual Studio, and are designed to run on desktop, mobile, and future devices that support the Universal Windows Platform
There are over 180 samples, covering the breadth of Universal Windows Platform APIs with support in multiple languages such as C#, C++, and JavaScript.
The samples use Linked files in Visual Studio to reduce duplication of common files, including sample template files and image assets. These common files are stored in the SharedContent folder at the root of the repository and referred to in the project files using links. To use the samples you need to extract the entire zip file including the SharedContent folder
