Thanks Matthew. I'm not sure I was clear on what I am hoping to do. I am on a Mac (and an iPhone guy mostly). I am tasked with getting a simple app to run on a Windows 8 Phone even when Data is not available. I can use appery.io to create the app. I can view the app using the QR code.
However I don't have a way to get the app "native" or compile the app in VS. I have tried other ways to get the files to the phone. I upload a ZIP file to the phone via skydrive. That does not work. Neither does it accept a folder.
