Presentation Topic: Building Modern, HTML5-based SharePoint 2013 Apps with Visual Studio LightSwitch

Abstract:
In this demo-heavy session, see how to build and deploy data-centric business applications for SharePoint 2013/Office 365 that provide rich user experiences tailored for modern devices and take advantage of cloud-based business services. We’ll cover how LightSwitch helps you focus your time on what makes your application unique, allowing you to easily implement common business application scenarios—such as integrating multiple data sources, data validation, authentication, and access control. You will also see how developers can use their knowledge of HTML5 and JavaScript to build custom touch-centric SharePoint apps that run well on modern mobile devices.
