DEV205 - 10 Things Every Silverlight and WPF Developer Must Know

Tuesday November 9 at 6:00pm

If you're a code-on-the-client guy, Silverlight and WPF are the technologies to know. However, they can be really hard to get into. Let's face it, XaML, dependency properties, the binding system - these are all new to most developers. This session is a crash course on developing in XaML-based technologies and will give you everything you need to know to get started, the knowledge you'll need to build on, and where to go once you move beyond Hello World. Interested in Silverlight or WPF but haven't been able to get past the initial barriers? This session is for you.
