Shoutouts:
Component Ways has a releast of their... might be worth a look... check out the feature set and download the eval.
This is an all-submittal edition... and thanks for all the submittals!... as busy as this week has been, I'm not sure I've got the energy to look. I'll catch up with the rest of you starting tomorrow!
From:
I have to admit it was full-border (resizeable) window skinning that got me interested in WPF/E 'back in the day'... and Martin Krüger's come darn close to it... this is some pretty cool stuff... take the link at the bottom and run the demo.
Vikas has a post up that's close to my heart... he's using an ASCII character to display a checkmark in a menu... too cool... like the radio buttons and checkboxes I did in Silverlight 1.0:)... only nicer looking!
Here's the beginning of a great series: Kevin Dockx has the 1st of 3 parts up on Caching in a Silverlight app... XAP Caching, Assembly Caching... oh, and this one is on SilverlightShow as well:)
Brian Noyes has Part 8 of his 10-part series on WCF RIA Services up on SilverlightShow... they've had a busy day!... this episode in Brian's series is about Testing and Debugging.
In the first of many interviews today at SilverlightShow, we find Kunal Chowdhury, a new Silverlight MVP and all-around great Silverlight developer and blogger.
The next app developer to be interviewed by SilvelrightShow is Gergely Orosz, the author of CocktailFlow. Read his incentive for writing the app and his answers to their WP7 questions.
The SilverlightShow folks next talk to Garry McGlennon, the author of ezyTip for WP7, and grill him on his app and his opinion about the phone and it's future.
I've already done a review of René Schulte's great Pictures Lab WP7 app, but the SilverlightShow folks did an in-depth interview with him discussing the development of the app and issues he had plus the future of the phone and apps for it.
With the release of Prism 4 last Friday, Matias Bonaventura has announced the release of their awesome Training Kit upgraded to 4.0... I got my arms around Prism using their previous version... I think the ship has sailed for me now... but for anyone else that's just getting involved with Prism, don't pass this up!
If you're working in ASP.NET MVC and want to host some Silverlight... Bart Czernicki has the info for you on how to do it. He cautions that some prior knowledge of ASP.NET MVC is required but hey... if you're working in it and need this, you probably know that, huh?
Dennis Doomen searched out a cross-browser problem and found it in code happily generated by Blend and compiled just fine...
Stay in the 'Light!
