Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) replaces Microsoft’s diverse
presentation technologies with a unified, state-of-the-art platform
for building rich applications. WPF combines the best of Windows and
the Web; fully integrates user interfaces, documents, and media; and
leverages the full power of XML-based declarative programming. In
Essential Windows Presentation Foundation, former WPF architect Chris
Anderson systematically introduces this breakthrough platform,
focusing on the concepts and techniques working developers need in
order to build robust applications for real users. Drawing on his
unique experience as an architect on the team, Anderson thoroughly
illuminates the crucial new concepts underlying WPF and reveals how
its APIs work together to offer developers unprecedented value.
Through working sample code, you’ll discover how WPF draws on the
Web’s simple models for markup and deployment, common frame for
applications, and rich server connectivity, and on Windows’ rich
client model, simple programming model, strong control over
look-and-feel, and rich networking. Topics explored in depth include
WPF components and architecture Key WPF design decisions–and why
they matter XAML markup language Controls Layouts Visuals and media,
including 2D, 3D, video, and animation Data integration Actions Styles
