Introduction Just the other day I blogged about “Enabling Frame Rate Counter for XAML Applications in Windows 8”. At the very end of that post, I reminded everyone that that method does not work for HTML / JS Metro Applications. But, we are in luck as Mathias Jourdain provided sample code for accomplishing this in HTML / JS in his Build talk. The only problem was that he didn’t describe how to hook this into a new application to actually use. That is going to be the focus of today’s blog post. Let’s get started Unlike XAML Applications, this must be done using code. So, click on “Visual Studio 11” to begin.

I did not realize a metro-app for Windows 8 could be developed using HTML5 and JS. What JS library is being used to build it? Are these jQuery extensions or another HTML framework that MS has built from the scratch?
