Windows Store app Development snack: XAMLSPY
Published on Estimated reading time: 1 minutes
The above video shows the great XAML Spy tool, which is a massively helpful tool when working with any XAML-based application—like a Windows Store app. XAML Spy allows you to gain insights such as performance and memory usage, but for me, the real value comes when you attach it to the application: you get a set of small tools to use in the app to help identify and navigate the XAML.
Once you’ve found the piece of XAML causing issues, you can test your ideas in real time using the real-time editor functions, which really speeds up development. This is a must-have tool for those who take pride in their craft!
