  LightSwitch HTML Client RELEASE Available in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2!
  Beth Massi Microsoft Employee Monday, March 04, 2013 8:54 PM

  The LightSwitch team is proud to announce the release of the LightSwitch HTML client in Visual Studio 2012 Update 2!

  Users of the previous CTP4 release should be able to upgrade with no problems. Users of the older Preview 2 please read these important upgrade instructions before installing Update 2. 

  The new HTML5 and JavaScript-based client is an important companion to our Silverlight-based desktop client that addresses the increasing need to build touch-oriented business applications that run well on modern mobile devices. We’ve also enabled support for the new SharePoint Apps model, so you can now also build SharePoint 2013 apps with LightSwitch.

  Check out all the great resources to learn more:

  Developer Center – We’ve got a refreshed website with new HTML client resources and tutorials. The Developer Center is your one-stop-shop for the best LightSwitch team samples, videos, articles and documentation. Start with the basics or go deeper and explore the architecture and hosting options of LightSwitch apps.

  How Do I Videos – We also have started a new “How Do I...?” video series that shows you step-by-step how to get started building HTML clients with LightSwitch. Keep tabs on this page as we’re planning a lot more!

  JavaScript Samples – We also have created some JavaScript snippets that show you how to achieve many common coding tasks on the HTML client. If you’re new to JavaScript, these snippets should help!

  Ask questions in the General Forum – Thanks to everyone who gave feedback on the previews! Now that we have released, we will continue our conversations in the LightSwitch General forum. The team is listening there.

  Enjoy!
