Installing Windows 8 and Visual Studio before coming in:

To develop a Windows 8 app, you need to get Windows 8 and install it.

If you want to try Windows 8 out for a while, you can always download a 90-day evaluation copy.
You can buy Windows 8 online or in any computer store.

If you have a PC, you can install Windows 8 natively (recommended), you can boot to a VHD drive, or you can install it in a virtual machine. Install it natively if you can or boot to a VHD drive as a second choice. If you run it in a virtual machine, you might not get the same performance.

If you have a Mac, you can install Windows 8 using BootCamp or virtually using Parallels. There are other virtualization options, but these two are recommended.

After you have installed Windows 8, you need to download and install thedevelopment tool Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8 .
