How to create applications for Windows CE

I am new to CE, and I wanted to create applications for a computer (Intel) running on CE (5 and above). What exactly do I need to start and where should I go? I have never used CE before, but I have experience writing code in C, C ++, C # and Java.

Thanks,

If you're interested in writing an application using C #, do a small search for Compact Framework (CF). This is a stripped down version available in Windows CE.

Remember that Windows CE is a very customizable OS, and you have no guarantee that it will support a component of your application (including C #) - Windows Mobile (+ PocketPC, + SmartPhone2003) is a completely different story.

When developing for Windows CE, you need to use Visual Studio 2005/8 Professional to support Smart Device. When you develop C # applications using VS2008, you target CF3.5, and when you use 2005, you target CF 2.0

Take a look on Wikipedia, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_CE for a link in the Development Tools section, I recommend Visual Studio 2008 and C #, here is a link to the SDK: Developer Tool for Windows Mobile 6.5

As in Visual Studio 2010, Windows CE development is no longer supported, here are the details: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/sa69he4t%28v=vs.100%29.aspx
