Try googling for "visual studio smart phone" or "visual studio windows phone" or "visual studio windows tablet". Later versions of VS have the SDK included, for VS2008 you might need to download the SDK from the Microsoft(c) site.

Solution 1

No, that is not possible.
There are many differences between wpf and a windows universal app.
You have to create a new application.

You can use visual studio 2013 community to create a windows universal app (it's free).

Not directly, WPF on .net v3.5 is a desktop only technology.

You can create portable class libraries for parts of your code and use them on different devices that support it.

For UI, you pretty much have to create one for each platform you want.

What are portable class libraries?[^]

so u mean that if i create portable class libraries then i am able to use it with different devices???
But again option for creating portable class libraries is not available within .Net 3.5, it is only available from .Net 4.0 i guess.....????
