Blend for Visual Studio SDK for Windows Phone 8.0

  • Article

Important

The ability to design Windows Phone projects in Blend for Visual Studio 2012 is available only when you install the Windows Phone SDK 8.0.

The Blend for Visual Studio 2012 SDK for Windows Phone 8.0 provides conceptual topics and programming reference for behaviors, which are reusable pieces of packaged code that can be dragged onto any object and then fine-tuned by changing their properties. You can use behaviors to quickly extend the functionality of a Windows Phone project. To get started with behaviors in Windows Phone projects, see Working with built-in behaviors for Windows Phone.

Important

Because the Blend SDK for Windows Phone is provided to you "as-is," support services may not be provided for it. Microsoft may provide updated components to the SDK in the future. To check for updates, see Microsoft Support.
