XAML UI (WPF + Silverlight) Momentum shown at PDC09!

Best Week Ever

This may have been the best ever week for XAML UI. I’m smiling!

 

WPF 3 & WPF 4

I was excited about several exciting applications for Windows (built with WPF) shown or announced during PDC09 this week:

1) Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 beta 2 – a flagship application from Microsoft betting on improving the user experience.

2) Seesmic for Windows – a twitter client that feels very nice!

3) Microsoft Live Labs Pivot – a great way to explore and visualize data.

4) Fishbowl for Facebook by UXLabs@Microsoft – a great Windows 7 application for Facebook. (source code available!)

 

Silverlight 4

On top of that great WPF momentum, the Silverlight 4 beta made quite a splash during the day 2 keynote! Tim Heuer details the beta with a fantastic post: http://timheuer.com/blog/archive/2009/11/18/whats-new-in-silverlight-4-complete-guide-new-features.aspx

Tools for XAML UI

On the Tools front, several exciting developments are available

 

Many more things I could probably add…but it is 1am and my flight is at 6:20am…I should quit for now…
