Note: The sample is also available in template form through a VSIX template installer. Use the Visual Studio app template for your language (C#/XAML or HTML/JavaScript) as a starting point for your Windows Store apps.
Use a flat navigation pattern for your Windows Store app when it has a small number of pages and its information is not organized
in a hierarchy. In other words, when the pages, tabs, and modes are logical peers.
Here, we cover how to create a Windows Store app using JavaScript that uses the flat navigation pattern and meets all basic Windows Store certification requirements, from start to finish. This includes:
Image resources to expose your app throughout the operating system
App bars to support navigation and commanding
Data roaming to sync your app across sessions and devices
Settings to provide privacy, help, and other app info
Globalization to reach customers in countries and regions around the world
Accessibility to help users accomplish tasks regardless of physical ability and input device
This sample includes everything discussed in the Flat navigation, start to finish (HTML) and Flat navigation, start to finish (XAML) topics.
