silverlight-3: hello Silverlight
Hello Silverlight Silverlight 3 is a user-friendly tool from Microsoft that allows developers to easily add life to web applications with dynamic user features, colorful transitions, and eye-catching animations. We think it should be just as much fun to learn Silverlight as it is to use it. And we know that fun learning gets better results. Hello! Silverlight 3 is a fast-paced, entertaining introduction to Silverlight. In this book, User Friendly cartoon characters offer commentary and snide side comments, as the book moves quickly from Hello World into practical techniques. Each one is illustrated with a hands-on example. Along the way, readers will learn to build a simple Silverlight-based game complete with sound effects. download this free ebook

Silverlight-Kurs
Kurs gefällig?
Silverlight 3 and its associated development tools, Expression Blend and Visual Studio, are used to reproduce the look and feel of a desktop application in a browser deployed, cross-platform framework. Silverlight 3 Essential Training is designed to teach programmers how to create dynamic, interactive, rich Internet applications that run on Silverlight 3. Instructor Walt Ritscher covers the basic framework architecture to creating an engaging user interface. This course requires a working knowledge of C#, but includes lessons on XAML, a language designed to making coding in Silverlight easier. Exercise files accompany the course.

Versionen und die Verwirrung um die Expression Blend 2.5 Tech Preview
Versionen und die Verwirrung um die Expression Blend 2.5 Tech Preview
Am 30. April 2007 wurde die erste Version von Expression Blend veröffentlicht. Etwa ein Jahr später unterstützte die ursprüngliche Verkaufsversion von Expression Blend 2 zur Veröffentlichung im Juli 2008 nur das damals aktuelle Silverlight 1.0. Zur Entwicklung von Anwendungen für Vorabversionen von Silverlight 2 stellte Microsoft vor der Veröffentlichung von Silverlight 2 bereits eine kostenlose erweiterte Version von Expression Blend mit der Versionsnummer 2.5 zur Verfügung. Eine offizielle Verkaufsversion von Expression Blend 2.5 wurde allerdings nie veröffentlicht – die Funktionen zur Entwicklung für Silverlight 2 wurden mit dem ServicePack 1 in Expression Blend 2 integriert. ServicePack 1 wurde gleichzeitig mit Silverlight 2 im Oktober 2008 veröffentlicht und erweitert Expression Blend 2 um Funktionen zur Entwicklung von Anwendungen für Silverlight 2 mit .NET-Sprachen wie C# oder VB.NET, aber auch mit Ruby und Python. Im Juli 2009 wurde Expression Blend 3 zusammen mit Silverlight 3 veröffentlicht.

Expression Blend und XAML (EXtensible Application Markup Language)
Expression Blend und XAML (EXtensible Application Markup Language) [Bearbeiten]
Der WYSIWYG-Editor in Expression Blend erzeugt Vektorgrafiken im XAML-Format. XAML ist ein XML-basiertes Dateiformat zur Beschreibung von grafischen Elementen und Benutzeroberflächen, sowie zur Definition von Interaktionen dieser Elemente. XAML wird sowohl in Silverlight verwendet, als auch in klassischen Windows-Anwendungen auf Basis von WPF/.NET 3.x und in weiteren Anwendungsbereichen wie dem Microsoft-Druckformat XPS. XAML ermöglicht eine durchgängige Verwendung derselben Grafikelemente und einer gemeinsamen Quellcodebasis für plattformübergreifende Webanwendungen die im Browser laufen, Desktopanwendungen, Druck bis hin zu mobilen Geräten. Expression Blend unterstützt in XAML unter anderem dynamische Vektorgrafiken und Animationen, Pixelgrafiken, 3D-Objekte, Videos, Sound und Text sowie komplexe Controls.
