Shoutouts:

Denislav Savkov of SilverlightShow ported his Slider control to WP7: Windows Phone 7 Series Sample Image Viewer

SilverlightShow interview: The Silverlight Tour - what, where and why. Interview with one of the Tour organizers Laurent Duveau

From:

Alex van Beek has an approach to resolving the MVVM issue of Animations without keeping a reference to the ViewModel by way of VisualStateManager

Gill Cleeren's post at SilverlightShow talks about using ASP.NET authentication inside your Silverlight making membership not only something you know and understand, but now the transition from your ASP.NET apps to Silverlight is simple as well.

SilverlightShow has a demo RSS Reader for WP7 up... no text, but the code is there.

Michael Sync actually has a multi-touch simulator working for WP7... it involves a bunch of moving parts and one of the requirements is Windows 7, but if that works for you, this will too:)

Rénald Nollet demonstrates new Blend and VS2010 features that assists you in Element Property binding with real examples.

Charles Petzold is writing about Silverlight and 3D and specifically in this post 3D without math which becomes PlaneProjection... good long tutorial on it and code to back it all up.

The-Oliver has a post up about OOB and checking for updates using behaviors with only a slight change to your xaml... cool!

Max Paulousky has part 2 of his tutorial on a sketchflow Wizard for WPF... yes WPF, but check it out... source too.

Stay in the 'Light!

  • 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.
