The true power of LightSwitch lies in its combination of Access-like ease of use and quick ramp-up, while also remaining attractive for complex coding scenarios. The new LightSwitch HTML Client allows you to build modern apps in a couple of minutes, deploy them to online services like SharePoint and Azure and access them from a variety of mobile devices.

In below blog post we will dig even deeper into code and show you how to implement a custom collection control that shows a map.
