I'm working on a simple Windows 8 app in which I need to fetch a set of data from a web site. I am using WinJS.xhr() to retrieve this data, which returns a Promise. I then pass a callback into this Promise's .then() method, which supplies my callback with the returned value from the asynchronous call. The .then() method returns another Promise, giving it the value that my callback returns. The basic structure of such a query would be as follows: WinJS.xhr({ url: "http://www.example.com/" }).then( function callback( result_from_xhr ) { //do stuff return some_value; }).then( function

Well, subject. Can't figure out... Condition: both promises start asynchronously and not one after another. Like this: spashGoing.then(doSomethingForItself()); writingGoing.then(doSomethingForItself2()); DoSomethingAfterBothPromises() P. S. I use promises from WinJS, not the ES2015/ES2016, but they don't have big defferences. If WinJS promises are Promise/A+ promises Promise.all([ spashGoing.then(doSomethingForItself), writingGoing.then(doSomethingForItself2) ]).then(function(results) { // do things with results }); Well, answered too soon - WinJS promises are a typical example of Microsoft's

I have been using Windows 8.1 for creating Windows Store apps. Below is output of winver command. I have installed necessary updates to start developing universal Windows Store app using JavaScript. When I try to launch app on Windows Phone emulator, I am getting following error. Unable to start windows phone emulator It also suggesting to use Windows 8 pro version.

How can I update my app's live tile at a fixed interval, for example half a day, using JavaScript? Moreover, it has to be able to update even though the app itself is not running (like the weather app for example) EDIT: I want to update it locally without having to connect to the internet. And please give some example in JavaScript, not C# please! To be more specific, for example, how can I set the tile to update once per day, showing the current date? You can use a background task on a schedule for an interval for anything greater than 15 mins. The tasks are designed to be run by the OS
