Why now might be the right time to become a windows app/software developer.

With Windows 10, developing for Windows platform might be very rewarding to app developers, the Windows 10 team are working to make Windows 10 a unified, developer platform for all Windows devices so as a developer, you can reach the greatest number of customers with your apps across phones, tablet, PCs, Xbox, IoT (Internet of Things), Surface hub and the world's first hologrphic computing platform; Microsoft Hololens. And the new Microsoft Personal Assistant, hmmm, you will create apps that uses the Cortana feature, touch, video, audio and holograms in ways you only see in movies and in your dream.
I do not know what you think but for me, I think it will be an honor developing for the next generation devices. One thing we must all understand about Microsoft is that these guys are in business and investing in their products has always paid off, if you can purchase a license of Visual Studio, and make a good app with it, believe me you will be getting your money back in no time. With Microsoft development tools, you only worry about what you are building and not wasting valuable work force in troubleshooting and debugging your development tools. The Windows app store gives your app a marketing value and I also beleive this is where someone can pay a thousand dollar for your app, all it takes is to make a very useful program that your users will love. And the business models used for monetizing apps in this store are superb.
Microsoft has created a real market place for we developers, a market where apps undergo thorough test before getting published, a market where users can pay for apps with full trust. And the most interesting part is that you use the same skills and programming language you use in developing for Windows to deliver solutions to iOS and Android platforms using tools like Xamarin, Apacha Cordova all in one IDE (Integrated Development Environment). All you need is to get a PC purchase a copy of Visual Studio and start developing high quality apps for your platform of choice.
With all these new technologies Microsoft is releasing, this is the best time to develop for Windows. My only regret is that I started late.

Developing a C++ Program on Kali Linux Without Installing Additional Software This article is for hackers who want to develop a C++ program on Kali Linux without installing any additional software. Some might say you need to install a separate compiler or extra tools to write and run a simple C++ program on Kali Linux. However, I’ll show you how to do it right out of the box. Pre-installed C++ Compiler in Kali Linux Kali Linux comes with a pre-installed C++ compiler called g++ . We will use this to write and compile a basic "Hello, World!" program. Step 1: Check if g++ is Installed Open your terminal and run the following command: g++ -v If the compiler is installed, you should see version details. If not, you will get an error message. Step 2: Create a C++ File In your terminal, type: nano MyCpp.cpp This will create a C++ file and open it in the Nano editor. Step 3: Write the C++ Code Once Nano opens, enter the following C++ code: #include <...

HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE TEXT TO SPEECH(TTS) WINDOWS PROGRAM USING C# PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE.

This post is a beginner's guide on how to get started with speech programming in visual studio using c# (c_sharp) programming language. For those who don't know what a programming language is, in a nut shell, a programming language is simply a command based computer language used for instructing a computer to do a particular job. When I say job, I mean very complex job. Write the above definition in an exam and stand a chance of losing marks. The definition isn't all there is about what programming language is, so I suggest you make a good search to learn what programming language really is. Though, this article is for beginners but I will say "BEGINNERS ARE CLASSIFIED", am a beginner. If you are a beginner who hasn't tasted code in his or her life before, I suggest you go start something. A good learning source is "tutorial point", they taught me a lot. Now for you who have tasted code, you will need the following: Computer System running wind...

HOW TO APPLY FALLING TEXT EFFECT IN A CONSOLE PROGRAM WITH THREADING IN C#

"A thread is defined as the execution part of a program. Each thread defines a unique flow of control. If your application involves complicated and time consuming operations then it is often helpful to set different execution paths or threads, with each thread performing a particular job.", says the smart guys behind Tutorials Point.Well, our program is not going to be complicated and we are not going to be performing any time consuming task, we are rather going be creating a camouflage application that gives us the effect similar to what you get when you ping a site or an IP address with the "-t" option in cmd or the effect you see in movies like Blacklist, 24, Person Of Interest and the likes.Now let's stop the ranting and get started.We are going be building this application upon our existing code, one we started in the previous article "How to grammatically Change the background and foreground color of a console Application".Now open up the code in...
