Few days ago I decided to create Silverlight control which will count down event’s time. Nothing complex but sometimes can be useful. Created counter allows to make configuration in code (C#), XAML or by binding, which mean it supports Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM). I also created a compiled version which can be configured from html code using initParams. More details and examples you can find on project’s site.
Project main site and source code: http://silverlightgadgets.codeplex.com/
Live demo (Silverlight 3.0 beta 1) : http://wpierdalaj.pl/SWG/SilverlightCountDown/Run/SilverlightCountDownTimerExampleTestPage.html
I looking forward for your feedback! I know that I have to do something with “look and feel” and downgrade this version to Silverlight 2.0. If you have any others issues, just please leave me a comment. Thank you!
