Intro to WPF Part 1: XamlPad

[whcernan]

Wow, we've taken everything we ever learned about developing with a graphical IDE and thrown it out the window. Welcome back to 1985.

One more platform, language, syntax that WE DONT NEED.

Does it need a custom browser to run the application?

[verifive]

Tell me the basics. What does this application do. I understand XML and it has tags and attributes. And can be used for formating, similar to HTML, or Word. But exactly is the point. Where do you use this, on a web page? PowerPoint? Create a Demo? An advanced Powerpoint?

Hi, my company just started using WPF to develop HMI for our plant.. So i need to learn it.. But I am very new to all this. So sorry if my question is a bit dumb.. but where can i get the WPF SDK? microsoft sites were not helpful.. and i believe the XamlPad is an extension that comes with the SDK, correct??

[visje19]

how can i get xamlpad ?

[unclvinny]

@visje19 According to MSDN: "XAMLPad is installed with the SDK and can be found from the start menu at All Programs/Microsoft Windows SDK/Tools/XAMLPad."

quite good and tricky

[RatedAbstract]

the code is unreadable, can anyone provide a link to good quiality videos (preferably non-youtube)

[enriquelmx]

yeah , with Movie Maker XD, it has a opcion, whem you export your video, is like a HD opcion ;).

search "HD in movie maker" :)

Good luck

[realview101]

Yeah? Why are WPF sample videos almost always unreadable?

[cleberz]

despite the rotate capability, nothing here very different of xhtml + css. Given that you have to learn a new language & have the proper tool instead of just a browser I prefer Firebug. Let's see what the other examples show.

[cypherzero0]

you don't know what you're on about do you :) how do you expect to create a windows applications using xhtml?

[12ob8logland]

No don't I loved it!

[youarthurhu]

Replace the dialog with powerpoint style titles and put in a catchy soundtrack.

[youarthurhu]

That is soooo cool, I'm gonna download xaml pad and do it again!

[senfo]

Couldn't you make the video any more clear? I can't read a thing.
