Windows Store App的登录屏幕-最好的方法是什么？

Question

I've just started developing for Windows Store App and I have an app which requires a login screen. This login is just to select user records and should not be related to any social network. My first approach was create a XAML page and load that page when the app starts, in the App.xaml.cs Then I saw some people using Popups to ask for login, handling the code in the Main.xaml code behind. What would be the best approach?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Microsoft give some Guidelines for login. You can get it here .

Guidelines are not an obligation. It is just classic and valid way to do something. Maybe a pop up is an accepted idea, for now maybe you should follow the "basic" way.

Answer 2

I think both options are possible. Based on your comments I would suggest build a Login usercontrol that you can use at multiple places. Because you have to login everytime the user starts the app, I would build a loginpage where the app default navigates to from the app.xaml.cs

In case where the app is resumed and you determine that the user has to login again to continue using the app, I would use an overlay over the page where the user already was and load the usercontrol. When the user is logged in again, you can just hide the overlay and the user can continue where he left.

Pro: No logic for remembering where the user came from.

Con: Overlay should be added on every page.
