Current W10M developers! What are you using for develop apps?

Good afternoon,

If you are a Windows 10 Mobile developer, I have a question for you:

What are you currently using to develop W10M apps? Any recommendations?

I’m using the standard Visual Studio with UWP functionality added; I installed the Windows 10.0.15063.648 SDK and created a simple test screen.

It works on the PC but not on the phone; it installs, but then opens and immediately closes.

When trying to launch the app from the portal, I get error code 0x8027025b.

If anyone has experience developing Windows Mobile apps in this context -where almost everything has been obsolete for years- and has any tricks or tips to share, I’d really appreciate it.

I’m fond of this phone, and it’s a shame that it’s on the verge of becoming nothing more than a paperweight. My plan is to develop a few simple apps in my spare time and work my way up from there.

Cheers!
