@Onsterion that functionality is not publicly available to 3rd party apps and is an internal only feature at this time. There are a few previous threads that discuss it like this one or this one.

@Onsterion when you say "create apps for the Shell", what do you mean exactly?
Are you referring to 2D apps which run in the Shell as opposed to 3D apps which take over the entire experience?
If so, 2D apps are basically Windows 10 UWP apps, typically created with XAML. There are tons of UWP tutorials out there and there are a bunch of feature specific examples here, but for the most part there is not a lot that is HoloLens specific about 2D apps since they are managed by the Shell.
