I am using a Nokia lumia630 device, which uses latest windows 10 insider preview build available.

i created a sample windows UWP application and took a build of the same.The output of the build is an Appx.

How can i install this Appx to my device? Anyone having any idea?

Deploying apps to Win 10 Mobile is a bit difficult when using the command line tool. A great alternative is the Device Portal that is available under the “For Developer” settings.Its available with the latest build.

Now You can connect to the device using a web browser and manage apps via the Apps page with no pairing/pin required. This seems to be an easy way of deploying apps than using command line.
