Skills Measured

Create the design specification for a mobile line-of-business (LOB) app

Specify the app development and business requirements

• Specify the tools and technologies that will be required during the development of the app, specify the method of source control that will be used during the development of the app, specify the quality attributes of the app that must be achieved, specify cross-cutting concerns that exist within the project space (related apps and data ecosystems), specify the deployment scenarios for the release of the app, specify the code maintenance requirements (post-release) for the app, specify the globalization and localization requirements for the app

Specify the architecture of the app based on environment, infrastructure, business, and usage criteria

• Specify the layers of the app, specify the data sources for the app, specify the external services that the app will access, specify the cross-cutting concerns within the app, specify the components of the app

Design the app in association with user-experience (UX) criteria

• Design and evaluate the app with respect to Windows 10 design principles, including craftsmanship, fast and fluid, authentically digital, more with less, and multiple devices; design and evaluate the app with respect to personality and branding, including composition, typography, color, and motion; design and evaluate the app with respect to UX patterns and platforms, including user interface (UI) controls, navigation, commanding, and presentation; design and evaluate the app with respect to cross-platform support, including app and platform types

Develop quality and testing requirements

• Establish performance requirements, establish security requirements, establish concurrency requirements, establish globalization and localization requirements, establish testing requirements, establish use cases

Implement application lifecycle management processes

Develop an LOB app that supports windowing, adaptive layout, and in-app navigation

Create a layout for use within an app UI

• Select the appropriate XAML control based on the UI requirement, including control categories: basic, text, scenario, and presentation; implement a XAML control within a layout; create a fixed layout; create an adaptive layout

Develop the code required to implement data binding within the app UI

• Implement data binding; implement data templates

Develop code to support scaling and windowing

• Develop code to support various screen sizes and resolutions, including window size, screen dpi, and window shape; develop code to support changing window size, including adaptive layout and content flow; use emulators to evaluate windowing implementations

Implement styles and themes
