Infos

Expression Blend was Microsoft's first entry into the web application and design space; the first time they trod on Adobe Flash's toes. They got a lot of things right, and started to carve out a market, but they didn't get the crossover numbers they wanted. Blend 2 is where they put that right. It is a huge improvement over Blend. This book details everything a designer or developer needs to know to start developing web applications in Blend.

Welcome to Foundation Expression Blend 2: Building Applications in WPF and Silverlight! I am very excited about this book, as I love Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Silverlight, and I have a passion for teaching them both. Throughout the course of the book, I am going to take you step by step from being a novice in Blend/WPF/Silverlight to being a skilled prac- tioner, able to create your own dynamic Rich Media Applications with animations, stunning effects, and even 3D objects. As well as these innovative tools from Microsoft, you will also use some third-party applications that will really make your creations visually stunning. Because this technology is so new, only a handful of people in the world know how to develop in it, and those who can are compensated very well and are highly sought after. It's a rapidly expanding market, and more and more companies are looking for Silverlight and WPF developers-if you have those skills, then you'll be a developer in demand! To give you an www. identitymine.
