AppBar in UWP

Step 1: First of all we've to create a Blank Universal Windows Platform Project in Visual Studio 2015.

Step 2: The next thing we'll do is to add the following code.It should be kept in mind that the AppBar code goes after the Grid.

  1. <Page.BottomAppBar>  
  2.     <CommandBar>  
  3.         <CommandBar.PrimaryCommands>  
  4.             <AppBarButton Name="webcamera" Icon="WebCam" Label="Camera" />  
  5.             <AppBarButton Name="user" Icon="AddFriend" Label="Add User" />  
  6.   
  7.         </CommandBar.PrimaryCommands>  
  8.   
  9.         <CommandBar.SecondaryCommands>  
  10.             <AppBarButton Name="webcamera" Icon="WebCam" Label="Camera" />  
  11.             </CommandBar.PrimaryCommands>  
  12.     </CommandBar>  
  13. </Page.BottomAppBar>
