Answer 1

Hi Thayumaanavan,

 

Currently, the developer tools are available only with the image named "Windows Developer Preview with developer tools English, 64-bit (x64)". We just posted a more detailed answer to the same question in the Tools forum (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/toolsforwinapps/thread/f2bc3b94-caab-4973-8bbd-c8123b811d0a).

 

Sincerely,

Dan
