Live Services for Applications Mesh Application
Mesh-Enabled Application Life CycleHow do we look at Applications Developers Users
Conventional Application Choices Client Applications -- Rich -- Websites -- Reach -- Mesh-Enabled Web Applications • High points: • Access from anywhere • Instant On Updates • Sandboxed to Browser • deployment & Update • Discoverable • Shareable • Challenges: • Occasional Connection(offline) • Rich User Experience • Native User experience • Must be hosted at scale • High points: • Richer User experience • Native User Experience • occasionally connected (Offline) • Hosted on OS • Challenges: • Deployment & Update • Discoverability • Ability to share • Sandboxing & Access control
Mesh-Enabled Web Applications Sync… Websites Devices & Social Mesh
Application Types/Terminology • Live Framework supports two major application types • Mesh-Enabled Web Applications • Hosted and deployed in user’s Mesh • Takes full advantage of Live Services • Most support for Application Life Cycle • Any other Mesh-Enabled Applications that use Live Services • Covers all the other application types that don’t fit in the previous category • Use a subset of Live Services including client/cloud endpoints

Key Tenants of “Mesh-Enabled Web Applications” • Application Mesh Object • Data Feed(s) • Application Data • Settings • User data • Associated Mesh Objects • Access to user data Mesh-Enabled Web Application

Optional Mesh Bar • One per App Instance • Live Framework APIs allows: • Manage app News • Manage app Members • View mapped Devices News Members Devices
Silverlight 2 Integration • public Page() • { • InitializeComponent(); • MeshApplicationServicemeshApp = Application.Current.GetMeshApplicationService(); • meshApp.LoadCompleted += newEventHandler(app_Load); • meshApp.Load(); • } • voidapp_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) • { • MeshApplicationServicemeshApp = Application.Current.GetMeshApplicationService(); • RenderContent(meshApp); • } • voidRenderContent(MeshApplicationServicemeshApp) • { • //Accessing Mesh • myMesh = meshApp.LiveOperatingEnvironment.Mesh; • //Accessing the Application Mesh Object • meshApp.Resources.Title = "My Title"; • }
JavaScript Libraries • MeshApp.run = functionMeshApp$run() { • Microsoft.LiveFX.MeshApplication.loadAsync(windows.location.hostname, Delegate.create(null, function(meshApplicationContext) • { • if (meshApplicationContext.state !== Microsoft.LiveFX.OperationState.Success) • { • MeshApp._showError('MeshApplication Load Failed'); • } • else • { • varmeshApplication = meshApplicationContext.resource; • meshApplication.get_runtimeEndpoint().get_mesh().loadAsync • (Delegate.create(null, function(meshOperationContext) • { • MeshApp._onLoadMesh(meshOperationContext); • })); • } • }));
Delegated Authentication for WebsitesSimple Flow • Enables users to share mesh data and apps with Websites User 1) Add to Mesh Third Party Web Site 2) Consent Request Live Desktop ________ Cloud Services 5) Auth Token 6) Call Endpoint 3) Consent UI 4) Agree to Consent

MeshPack AppsShowcasing the Promise of Live Mesh Collaborative Crossword • Work on puzzles with your friends, anyplace, anytime • Silverlight UI using with Silverlight Mesh libraries • Puzzles stored as a Feed, with each item representing a square (x, y, letter, user) • No server-side code! • MeshLists • Create, edit & share lists (camping equip, staffing, etc.) • JavaScript UI & Mesh Libraries • Each list stored as a feed, with each row as an item • Schema is stored as a second Feed, including identifiers • Mesh handles sending data to the cloud • Crowd Vote • Efficient, collaborative decision making • Same foundation as MeshLists – a Feeds for rows and a Feed for options • New item in the rows Feed created when a new member accepts Mesh invite • Corkboard • Bulletin board for the digital life • JavaScript Data stored as a Feed, each note is an item • Name and Title are standard item elements • Custom attributes added to items using Mesh-provided extension to map key/value pairs
