Remote Systems sample

The sample shows how to use the RemoteSystem class to discover and interact with other computers.

  • Discovery: Discover a user's systems through proximal connections such as Bluetooth and Wi-Fi as well as discovery via the cloud. The systems all must be signed in with the same Microsoft Account (MSA).
  • App Launch: Use RemoteLauncher to launch applications on a discovered remote system.
  • App Services: Use App Services with a discovered remote system to send messages between apps running on two systems.

Note The App Services scenario connects to the AppServices Provider sample. In order to run the App Services scenario, the AppServices Provider sample must be installed on the remote system.

Note The Windows universal samples require Visual Studio 2015 to build and Windows 10 to execute.
