I am a beginner to develop mobile application using asp.net / visual studio. Kindly anybody guide me that from where should i start and guide me to the right way and also refer to the video tutorials so that i could mark my first mobile application.
Also kindly let me know that what should i select to develop mobile application whether it should New project OR New Website.
The beauty of ASP.NET is, it will render the content based on the request device. So, general ASP.NET Website works absoluetly fine with all Models which u have mentioned.
Some Mobile manufacturers provide, simulators which u can use of free of cost.
Check the following links for more information on developing web apps for Mobile devices,
Many Thanks for your replies and shared the links Mr. Nandip and Mr. Roopesh Reddy C
i haven't seen all the links yet but kindly let me know that i do not want to develop browser based application using asp.net. i want to develop applications for
nokia, samsung, sony ericsson, iphone and blackberry mobile sets which properly install and need the GPRS or WiFi connection to retrieve the data from the database.
Kindly let me know that your shared links would help me out.
With ASP.NET, you can develop web application(which can be viewed in a web browser). If you r specific in developing thick applications(which can be installed in the phone), then u have to check with the different Mobile Manufacturers.
With Microsoft .NET, you can develop apps which can be installed in Windows Mobiles/Phones. You cannot install in any other Mobile devices.
