IAP Mock Library - windows-phone-8

I'm trying to follow this tutorial on the Microsoft website that shows you how to add the Mock project to my project. I'm not sure how to add a project to my original project and link the Class files. It asks me:
As an alternative to testing in-app purchase by creating a Dev Center beta app, you can add the mock in-app purchase library to your solution. In Visual Studio, add the mock in-app purchase library as an additional project to your solution.
But I'm not sure how to. Any help, please?

You add project by rightclicking in you solution and adding the solution file of the iap mock library. Using the dev account you have to create a beta in upload a product list. But basicly step by step follow http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj681689(v=vs.105).aspx

How to build a Today Widget / App Extension with Cordova?

An app I am working on needs a Today Extension / Widget. Are there any resources on how to build one into an Cordova app?
I found this, but it's not written very clearly and from what I understood seems to be a native app that only uses a HTML5 element in the app and widget to display some data :/
Yes you are right, today extension are a native thing. I recently also did a lot of research on how to integrate one into a cordova project dynamically and ended up creating my own cordova-plugin for that. You can find it here, maybe it will be useful for you too! Nevertheless you will have to implement the widget in Swift.
The plugin takes an already developed widget and integrates it in an cordova-ios project on every cordova platform add ios using a hook which parses and modifies the project.pbxproj via the help of cordova-node-xcode.

How to publish Xamarin UWP apps to windows store using VS2015?

I cant find any information how to publish an uwp app to store which is created as xamarin.forms project. On my VS2015 proffesional version, I don't have any option as "store" as shown in this article below.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/packaging/packaging-uwp-apps
Does anybody know an easy way of doing this? Most important how to handle steps 5,6,7, 10, 11 in the article if there is no automated way.
EDIT: I can find this option on the Project->Store Menu above but all the options are grayed out as shown in the image below. I am connected with a developer account email on my VS2015.
my Project is a UWP project as shown below. And I have 2nd project as WP81. Right Click on WP81 project has Store menu option enabled. problem persist only for UWP project in the same solution.
EDIT: Same project on 2 different computers.
1- has store option enabled. where I have packages below are installed
2- doesnt have store option on right click but has grayed out store menu under project has below packages are installed
Please first lest-click to select UWP or other Windows project, and then right-click project and select store option, you can find Create App Packages.... If this option is disabled or does not appear at all, check that the project is a UWP project.

Get Store licensing-status in "Centennial" Winforms app

In a Winforms app converted into a uwp app (Centennial) - how can the app check for the licensing status?
In UWP I can use CurrentApp.LicenseInformation but that's under Windows.ApplicationModel.Store, and I can't find that in the Add Reference to Winforms.
To be able to use the WinRT APIs from your Winforms project, please add a reference to this WinMD reference: C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\Windows.winmd from your Winforms project. I'd also encourage you to take a look at the Desktop Bridge samples on GitHub: https://github.com/Microsoft/DesktopBridgeToUWP-Samples
Btw, since you asked the Store licensing question, have you already filled up this form: https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/projects/campaigns/desktop-bridge yet? Once you fill up the form, someone from MSFT will contact you to work with you further regarding further help on the onboarding to the Store process...Let me know if you are stuck there...

simple HTML project type for Visual Studio 2010

We are developing a REST based application using Visual Studio 2010, using asp.net web api and we want to host it using IIS.
For the client side, we want to use pure html, css and javascript to access and using this REST based application.
But we could not find any project type HTML web application or site in VS 2010.
WE do not want to use asp.net or mvc empty project.
Is there is any project type available or any other best way to do this?
Create a folder on your drive for the website.
Then create an Blank Solution project (Other Project Types -> Visual Studio Solutions).
Finally, right click in your solution and choose "Add -> Existing website", select file system in the Add Existing Web Site dialog, and navigate to your web site folder.
I made a simple template. to get it:
Visit Visual Studio Gallery page. Download the VSIX file and install it. next time when you create new project, you will see the HTMLProjectTemplate in Visual C# project type.
Another way to install the plugin:
Install directly from VS2010 > Tools > Extension Manager, search for HTMLWebsite in Online Gallery, install it. next time when you create new project, you will see the template under Visual C# project type.
