LightSwitch HTML Client installation
The download unzips to a VHD with a Windows 8 image and the Visual Studio 2012 RC with HTML Client is pre-installed.
Hyper-V Instructions for Windows 8
The ‘ContosoMove‘ sample application is located under the documents of the ‘TestUser‘ account. We enabled Hyper-V in Windows 8 and created a new VM using the supplied VHD.
Unzipping the VHD
The VHD is ready for use
Adding a New Client
A MobileWeb HTML Client in the VS LightSwitch designer
There can be one RichClient Desktop client and one or more MobileWeb clients added to the LightSwitch projects. The most notable difference in the IDE is the way navigation is configured and the screen snapshot above shows the screen content items have actions in the property window.
So the sample screens are running and there is plenty of testing to do.
