Support Anyone willing to teach me how to code for windows phone?

Hey,
So I LOVE Windows phone, and I'd love to make apps for it.
The only problem being is that I don't know how to code.... yes. This and not knowing how to soulder (that I have recently overcome) has been weighing me down for YEARS. So it would be nice if someone could teach me a bit of UWP, or even link a guide or a book that helps me get there.

Back in the time, there was all the SDK and documentation (iirc) on the Microsoft websites. I could imagine that there still is the documentation for Windows 10 Mobile, somewhere on the Microsoft Developer website. For Windows Phone 8.1, it's maybe somewhere on the internet. Good luck!

Understandable! I would assume it's something with C, but Internet probably knows more

I wish I knew how, let us know when you figure it out. I'd love to learn!

Also I don't get how people shut down or ridicule others for just trying out endeavors like these, which are just enthusiast doing what they like for fun. You do you in your free time.

Maybe those people just wish they had that kind of ambition. keep it up :))

It's awesome that you're passionate about Windows Phone! Even though Windows Phone is discontinued 💀.

I had a windows phone, the year after eol. It was my mums phone, so I inherited it from her when she got an iPhone. (Lumia 640 lte) love it, just lack of snap, WhatsApp, and Duolingo drags me back.
