In an effort to drum up support for its smartphone platform among existing smartphone developers, Microsoft has released a raft of information to help iOS developers find their feet on Windows Phone 7.



From ArsTechnica:

One of the undisputed high points of Windows Phone is its developer experience. Together, Visual Studio, Expression Blend, Silverlight, and XNA provide a high quality toolchain and development environmentone that has seen Microsoft's faltering smartphone platform punch well above its weight when it comes to application support, boasting now of more than 15,000 applications. Later in the year, the Mango update will greatly expand the reach and capabilities of the SDK, enabling the development of a wide range of applications that can't yet be built.
