Windows Library for JavaScript

The Windows Library for JavaScript (WinJS) is a pure JavaScript library created by Microsoft specifically for building Windows Store apps. Understanding how to use this library is the primary focus of this book.

The WinJS library contains all of the WinJS controls. These are the controls that you use to build the user interface for your Windows Store app. For example, the WinJS library includes a DatePicker control that displays a user interface widget for selecting a date.
