The Live Framework is the uniform way to program against Live Services from a variety of platforms, languages, applications and devices. As well as providing the operating environment and resource model, Live Framework also represents the way to access the synchronisation features offered by Mesh and provides a mechanism for replicating and hosting offline Silverlight (and HTML) applications.
In this session well try and demystify the Live Framework, clarifying what it is, what is does and what it looks like. Well then go on to look at how to get started developing with the Live Framework and explore some of the different capabilities it offers and types of application you can build.Bio
