Will Titanium Studio support the Windows Phone 8 platform? Is there any talk of it? Is there anything concrete from Titanium stating they are doing it?
I looked on google and can find nothing.
Currently it is just iOS, Android, Blackberry and Tizen are supported by Titanium Appcelerator, though Blackberry is in beta with a paid subscription. You will get more updates and information from this blog post.
Edit : Titanium Support Plans for Windows 8
Update 1 : windows-8-support-whats-going-on
Update 2 : Getting Started with Windows 8 SDK

I develop many UWP apps to Windows 10, but to Windows 11 I have so many questions and sometimes the Microsoft Docs it's confusing. I want develop new apps to Windows 11 but I am totally lost!
What is the difference between Windows App SDK and WinUI 3? I dont understand :(
And what is the best way to develop Windows 11 apps? Still UWP? Or Windows App SDK? Or WinUI 3?
UWP dont have round corners thats correct? I create a new project in my computer with Windows 11 in visual Studio 2022 and only the window of my app have rounder corners, but another elements (for example buttons) dont have rounded corners!
And Mica is not only availabe in WinUI 3?
The Windows App SDK is the next evolution in the Windows app development platform.
WinUI is the UI part of the Windows App SDK. It provides UI features for the Windows App SDK apps. When you create a Windows app SDK app, you have to use WinUI3 to create the UI layout. The previous version of WinUI like WinUI 2.7 could be used in UWP apps.
Using UWP or Windows App SDK depends on your own requirements and scenario, both of them could work on Windows 11.
I'm developing a windows phone app. I'm using Windows 7 OS.
Which Visual Studio version should I use and also which Windows App version should I target?
Can it be WP7.1?
And also, I would need to use WebView. Is WebView available in 7.1? Or is there any other alternative of WebView in WP7.1?
I've gone through many articles but still unable to decide.
I highly recommend not to develop against the Windows Phone 7.1 API. It's outdated for more than three years now. You can generally install the Windows Phone 8.0 SDK on a Windows 7 system: How to Install Windows Phone 8 SDK on Windows 7
The results will satisfy you and your users more than a Windows Phone 7 app.
The mobile app market turns really fast. Much faster than the desktop application market. You should consider to do the free update to Windows 10 in order to be able to create Windows Phone 8.1 apps. Windows 10 Mobile is about to come this year. It supports the Universal Windows Platform so developers only need to develop an app onnce and run it on desktop PCs, phones and other Windows 10 devices. If I started a new app now I'd definitely create a UWP app.
Don't waste your time developing apps against an outdated API. Maybe you can still develop Windows Phone 7 apps now. But you'll probably don't get them into the stores in the future. It's just a matter of time when Microsoft stops developers to publish these old apps.
I'd like to ask tutorial about Nativescript for Windows Phone?
I already search on google but there is no tutorial about developing windows phone app using native script.
Thanks.
Nativescript for Windows Phone is not released yet. As far as I remember, the preview version should be available in May 2015.
I am developing an app for windows phone 8 I want to use OpenGl like in android and iOS I searched in internet but not found stuff that is helpful for me please suggest me if it is possible for WP8?
Unfortunately, OpenGL is not supported on Windows Phone. You can use Direct3D in Windows Phone 8 or XNA in Windows Phone 7/8.
EDIT/UPDATE:
If you want to use OpenGL on Windows Phone 8, you can use the ANGLE project which is an OpenGL API built on top of DirectX.
OpenGL is not supported yet on Windows Phone, but according to Marmalade, they will be providing OpenGL ES for Windows Phone 8 and Windows 8 "in early 2013".
Read their announcement at the following link and download Marmalade to get notified when it becomes available:

Note that Marmalade is not free though - even the Community Edition is $149/seat/year..
I'm starting to develop a player for windows phone 8. I have a login on appHub and can access docs and tools for WP7 development. It seems that there are some differences between WP8 and WP7, e.g., WinRT APIs are used instead of Silverlight for player development. I wonder whether the development documents and sdks for WP8 are available now. Where can I get them?
Right now you only have SDK for Microsoft Surface.. The SDK for WP8 is still not available
the sdk for wp8 is still not available hence you won't be able to get any material for those now.
you just have to wait.
you could still continue to develop for wp7 in the meantime and port it over to wp8 later on when the sdk is release.
You can now download the WP8 SDK and documentation here:
