You need to build solid apps that deliver real business value but the Cloud Application Model in SharePoint 2013 and Office 365 is a work in progress. How do you avoid the pitfalls and limitations that can sink a project? Where does the app model shine and where does it fall short? What hidden “gotchas” are lurking behind the scenes that you need to know about before getting started? These questions and a whole lot more will be answered in a series of deep-dive demonstrations and live-coding exercises. This is a no-holds-barred session that will show you exactly which techniques are ready for prime time and which don’t quite make the cut.
