MSDN Subscriber Evening - Building UX with Silverlight 2
I did a session last Wednesday (9 Apr) -- introducing our Rich Internet Application technology Silverlight to our MSDN subscribers.
In the session, we re-acquainted with Silverlight 1.0 and its AJAX-like programming model, but dedicated most of the time to introduce Silverlight and the new .NET development paradigm.
I've put the slides from the presentation, as well as the comics-book viewer sample project used for the code walk-through on my SkyDrive and you can find them here.
The sample code demonstrates Silverlight 2 controls (particularly Layout), control data-binding, asynchronous data fetching and LINQ. Much of the work was based off samples by Joe Stegman and Scott Guthrie.
