Indice was invited at the Windows Phone Apps Hackathon 2013 organized by Microsoft Hellas and the Greek Microsoft Innovation Centre on March 29-30, 2013. The two day event was all about building apps, reviewing common practices and patterns and having fun! The presentation, delivered by engineer Periklis Drampis, focused on our recent work on the Alpha Bank windows mobile app.
The app was built on microsoft guidelines and designed with a very clear and beutiful metro style. Downloads and user reviews on the windows store are a testimony to job well done.

Along with the presentation a small example project was prepared on using Behaviors and deferred loading on windows phone in order to handle large item lists and give the the effect of a virtually “infinite” scrolling. This pattern is commonly used in almost any feed-like app like twitter and facebook, where when reaching the end of the page, more feeds are loaded allowing you to keep scrolling without even realising that the list keeps growing incrementally without any UI hickups.
