From:

Mark Monster has yet another set of links to the series he's doing while studying for the Silverlight 4 exam.

Paul Sheriff has a great-looking Listbox with Images for WP7 up on his blog... description and code too!

Andrew Tokeley has done some very cool work with borderless windows for OOB apps... very cool... and the example is downloadable!

Sharker Khaleed Mahmud has a post up about a very cool note-taking control in Silverlight using Triggers... all code included, plus a hosted demo.

Joe McBride has a great code-heavy post up about Partsing OFX files beginning with a CodeProject post and building on it.

Jesse Liberty's been busy with two posts... part 3 of his "Windows PHone From Scratch" is up, and is about the first and second project.. he's demonstrating using Blend as the design tool of choice.

Jesse Liberty also has Yet Another Podcast number 10 up, and is a special podcast produced by talking with developers while at the PDC Windows Phone Workshop.

Jeff Blankenburg made it to day 31 of his 31-day quest, and finishes off the great WP7 Dev series with a post about charts... thanks for a great set of posts, Jeff... I for one know what it means to blog every day!!

Kirupa Chinnathambi posts a great reference for all the various InputScopes you can use in WP7... a post to link or print out and laminate:)

Richard Waddell hit the ol' blog again yesterday afternoon with two posts... This first is demonstrating using Inheritance and Custome Dependency Properties to bind up a ProgressBar.

In the next post, Richard Waddell discusses basically the same UI as the last one, but this time he throws a behavior into the mix.

Manuel Felício's part 4 of his Silverlight LOB series is on specifying metadata for the entities and finished this post with a link to the sourcecode.

Finally catching up with Manuel Felício... his 5th post in his series is the beginning of the client development and UI composition.

Stay in the 'Light!

  • We Won The One Award I Actually Care About

    Full Scale made the Inc. 5000 for the fifth year straight, the 12th listing across my three companies. Here is why the one award you cannot buy is worth stopping for.

  • Your Customers Build the Features Now

    I let a tool I liked sit dead for a year rather than build the features I wanted. An MCP server meant I never had to, and your customers can do the same to your product.

  • Get the Size of a Directory in Linux the Easy Way

    du -sh for the quick answer, ncdu for the cleanup, df for the disk itself: every command for checking directory size in Linux, plus why du and df never agree.

  • Vim Search and Replace: The Ultimate Guide

    One :%s command replaces every match in a file before a find dialog would even open. The Vim substitute patterns worth the muscle memory: flags, ranges, capture groups, and multi-file edits.
