Windows IoT console application written in c#?


I'm trying to make application that would take a picture using web-camera on Raspberry PI running Windows IoT. The problem is that I can't find console app template.Universal Windows blank app template provides me with GUI but I'm going to call this app from python script so it should be without one. Windows IoT projects provide background task template but the output is .winmd file and I cant execute it from python neither.

What is the way to create simple console app in Windows IoT using c#? Thanks


Solution

  • Console applications are supported in Windows IoT but apparently in C++ only. Perhaps you could try to create a solution that has a very simple C++ console application that just handles interaction with the user plus a C# class library with all the logic and hardware related code.
