Microsoft has released a Windows SDK for Google Analytics. Now, with a simple SDK based on the Android SDK variant of Google Analytics, developers can now integrate Google Analytics tracking into their Windows apps. It is based on Google’s Measurement Protocol, as explained by Microsoft’s Windows apps team:
The SDK is built on top of Google’s Measurement Protocol, a service that allows developers to send engagement data to the Google Analytics Servers over HTTP requests. The APIs in the Windows SDK for Google Analytics are modeled on class names and design patterns from Google’s Android SDK, to ensure maximum portability and readability for those already familiar with Google Analytics on other platforms.
Google Analytics for apps allows developers to record crashes, key user events and see the general app usage in a detailed view. The SDK is available for Universal Windows Apps, desktop apps and WinRT apps.
To find out how to integrate Google Analytics into a Windows app, Microsoft provides someinstructions here.
The new SDK is open source and Microsoft invites users of it to contribute. Additionally, it asks users toprovide feedback on the GitHub repo.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time).
For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web.
Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they’re looking for.
