Windows Azure Code Samples Voting

Hello current and future Windows Azure developers, do you have an idea that you want to implement in a Windows Azure application, but could use the help of a code sample to complete your learning?

We want to help you create great applications by providing a comprehensive list of code samples. To do this, we need your help to decide where our resources should be applied when creating the code samples.

Please review the list below of possible code samples and vote on the samples that interest you, or you can add one of your own.
Thank you,
David Murray [Windows Azure iX MSFT]

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.
