There’s no barrier between you and the analysis you want to perform.”

Our Windows 8.1 app was the first time we had to develop for both experiences in a single product. We needed to be sure that users shifting between platforms would have a familiar experience across devices so they could focus on their studies. At the same time, we wanted to incorporate the Modern UI aesthetic and design foundation. Fortunately, the front-end development tools from Microsoft let us not only implement a great UI quickly, but iterate and expand on it easily. With the Microsoft universal apps development model we can repurpose core architectural components across different devices.”
