Hi c.j.mcnaught,
"I need to get my homepage of my app going which i want to show a set of tiles. each tile needs to be clickable and will launch of to the same page but will pass in a different parameter."
-> Secondary tile might achieve a part of your idea, secondary tiles enable users to promote specific content and deep links - a reference to a specific location inside of the pinning app. But secondary tile can only be pinned by user but not programmatically
without user approval. Read this:
Secondary tiles overview.
But to pass the value from outside start screen to the app I don't think it would be possible.
"Can someone help me with what xaml controls will be useful, how to bind with the dynamic list o objects i build."
->
Quickstart: Data binding to controls might be a good start for you.
Hope the stuff I suggest can help you and best regards,
--James
