# NOW TV for Xbox

Source: https://www.gaz.dev/work/now-tv

I worked on the NOW TV apps for Xbox 360 and Xbox One, bringing a television-streaming product to two generations of games console.

## Project facts

- Client: NOW TV
- Platforms: Xbox 360 and Xbox One
- My contribution: Console app development

## The product

The apps let people use NOW TV on their Xbox, turning the console into a way to watch television in the living room.

## My contribution

I developed the apps for Xbox 360 and Xbox One. This was separate from my later Sky Go desktop work: different devices, different platforms, and an application used through a television and controller.

## Technology stack

- **C#**: Development of the Xbox 360 application.
- **Silverlight-based runtime**: The application runtime on Xbox 360.
- **WinJS**: Development of the Xbox One application.
