A good grasp of writing code in C# and a firm understanding of .NET 3.5 or higher is expected. This document covers conceptual topics as well architecture and code level implementation. Second, you should either have access to the Apprenda Platfor or have downloaded and installed Apprenda Express from http://www.apprenda.com.
