title: How can I make a simple launcher app?
body: <p>I want to make a simple launcher for an application (like, using <code>CreateProcess</code>), that I can use as a HelloWorld app <strong>and</strong> customize the app tile appearance -- sort of killing two birds at the same time: </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Getting familiar with the environment and </li>
  <li>Creating tiles who's appearance can be changed <em>(beyond just changing the icon for the app).</em></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>However, I'm not sure where to start. I've tried copying this code into the namespace, but this is not working:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[DllImport("coredll.dll")]
  private static extern bool CreateProcess(null, "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\Steam.exe");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The full code is of course this blank application template for c# ( <em>App.xaml.cs</em> -- at <a href="http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=234227" rel="nofollow">C#, VB, and C++ project templates for Windows Store apps</a>)</p>
