public Page() { InitializeComponent(); MeshApplicationService meshApp = Application.Current.GetMeshApplicationService(); meshApp.LoadCompleted += new EventHandler(app_Load); meshApp.Load(); } void app_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { MeshApplicationService meshApp = Application.Current.GetMeshApplicationService(); RenderContent(meshApp); } void RenderContent(MeshApplicationService meshApp) { //Accessing Mesh myMesh = meshApp.LiveOperatingEnvironment.Mesh; //Accessing the Application Mesh Object meshApp.Resources.Title = "My Title";

MeshApp.run = function MeshApp$run() { Microsoft.LiveFX.MeshApplication.loadAsync(windows.location.hostname, Delegate.create(null, function(meshApplicationContext) { if (meshApplicationContext.state !== Microsoft.LiveFX.OperationState.Success) { MeshApp._showError('MeshApplication Load Failed'); } else { var meshApplication = meshApplicationContext.resource; meshApplication.get_runtimeEndpoint().get_mesh().loadAsync (Delegate.create(null, function(meshOperationContext) { MeshApp._onLoadMesh(meshOperationContext); })); } }));

Mesh-Enabled Web Application

Pre-authenticated Pre-authorized to only access user consented data Sandboxed to browser No token management is required

Web Apps
Request for partial access to user data (Delegated Authentication) Pass requested permissions, App ID & Secret After user consent, gets a token to use against Live Services endpoint

Rich Client Apps

App runs as the user, with full permission Access to Cloud or Client Live Services endpoints

All about putting users in control of their data and apps

Application Secure Context

Apps not allowed to access disk, other apps and user private data User can explicitly grant permission to private data

Offers & Roles (Read, Write, Full)

Standard: Contacts, Profiles, News, LiveMeshFolder Custom Offers: <Custom Type> of Mesh Objects (promotes app type sharing)

Updating Applications is a pain point for developers and endusers
