Learn WinUI 3, 2nd Edition – Holiday discounts and win a print copy

Posted on | by Alvin A. | 1 Comment on Learn WinUI 3, 2nd Edition – Holiday discounts and win a print copy

Happy holidays! This is just a quick heads-up to let you know that I’m giving away a print copy of my latest book, Learn WinUI 3, 2nd Edition, over on LinkedIn. If you have a U.S. shipping address, all you need to do to enter is leave a comment on the LinkedIn post from yesterday.

There are also a couple of ways you can save when buying a copy of the book. If you prefer eBooks, Packt’s winter sale is going on now. You can get Learn WinUI 3, any of my other books, or any Packt video or eBook for only $10.

If you’re a fan of print books, you can get a physical copy of Learn WinUI 3 for 20% off on Amazon through December 31st. Just enter promo code 20LWUI during checkout. This discount is currently only available on the U.S. Amazon site. I’m looking into whether we can make it available to other regions. However, they tell me that the book is currently 10% off in other regions.

Many thanks to Peter Foot for his tech review of the content and to the Packt editors for helping me get this into your hands a few weeks early. All the code and content in the second edition have been updated to work with the latest Windows App SDK versions available today. It also includes three brand-new chapters on app notifications, Template Studio for WinUI, and porting WinUI 3 apps to Uno Platform.

If you’re attending TechBash 2023 next week, I’ll be there with five signed copies of the book to give away to some lucky attendees. If you’re interested in WinUI and cross-platform apps, Steve Bilogan will also be at TechBash, presenting a half-day workshop on creating xplat .NET apps with Uno Platform. There’s still time to register, and you can get 10% off with EventBrite code DOTNET10. I hope to see some of you there!
