With a membership in the Nokia Premium Developer Program, you’re provided a free license to the entire suite of Telerik RadControls. These controls are designed to decrease the development time for your Nokia Lumia apps and to help increase their ratings in the Windows Phone Store. Over 40 custom are included and they are already used by a number of publishers with top-selling apps. The controls offers a wide range of capabilities to complement the stock UI toolbox, such as powerful animations, data visualisation, and design templates.

In this Lumia App Lab Michael Crump, an evangelist with Telerik, gives you a brief overview of RadControls for Windows Phone, including interaction controls for animations, charting, and trial reminders; productivity controls, including diagnostics; and design controls, including Windows Phone Design Language templates and hub tile controls. Then Michale illustrates how to use the control and development techniques in coding demonstrations.

This webinar is for developers who want to use maps in their applications and extend the user interaction beyond basic pan and zoom functionality. You can extend the user’s interaction with a map canvas, beyond basic panning and zooming, by using the Maps API for Java ME to create custom map components.

This webinar is for you if you’re looking to use maps in your applications and extend the UI in an intuitive manner to do what you want it to do. The Maps API for Java ME includes a framework through which your custom component can respond to standard mapCanvas events.

In this recording, Jason Fox of Nokia’s Location and Commerce team in Berlin describes a series of intermediate and advanced situations where custom map components provide solutions to problems. He also shares a checklist of considerations for designing map components to be responsive to your users.
