Responsive mobile app
What is a good approach to writing a Windows mobile app that can work across devices, screen resolutions, screen sizes?
In my opinion, I would like to write the form once and be responsive.
But sometimes I hear you write a form for different form factors, different screen sizes, different orientations (portrait / landscape) ... I just think this approach works too much ... there must be an easier way.

Try to use the dock and snapping as much as possible to get panels that dock to the top / bottom / middle (padding) and then have controls that dock left and right.
Sometimes you might have a button or text that you want to center, in which cases it is best to do so in code.
