Have you learned just enough XAML to be dangerous? If so, then you now know that understanding the basic syntax of Silverlight isn’t enough. You need to learn some new concepts and designs, and unlearn some old ones.

This set of sessions by WPF/Silverlight veteran and Microsoft insider Billy Hollis will cover some of the most important topics needed to create more compelling business applications in Silverlight. Based on lessons learned in real development projects, you’ll see how to use color and transparency effectively, and how to work with lists to do progressive disclosure of information to users, showing users exactly what they need at a given stage of their work. You’ll also gain a basic grounding in architectural considerations for building a Silverlight client, including differences from older technologies such as ASP.NET and Windows Forms.

If you’re ready to go beyond merely spoofing older UI designs in XAML, and expanding your toolbox for creating more productive and attractive UI, then these sessions can help you along that path.
  • Session 1: Embracing Data Templates, 11 a.m. ET
  • Session 2: Effective Silverlight: Colors, Brushes, Images, and Transparency, 1 p.m. ET
  • Session 3: Client Architecture for Silverlight, 3 p.m. ET

Archived sessions will be available 24 hours after the end of the live event.

Rate: $109
