MS Silverlight

( Duration: 4 Days )

The Silverlight using C# training course provides the C# programmer with a thorough foundation in Silverlight. This course provides a thorough survey of Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML), which is also the foundation of Windows Presentation Framework (WPF). This course then shows how to use Silverlight to draw shapes, lines, text, images, sizing and positioning of controls and the use of panels. There is an introduction to Silverlight animation and the use of video and audio. The last part of this course covers topics in networking, data controls and data binding, and data access.

A basic understanding of Web application development using HTML and programming experience in .NET using C#. Some exposure to JavaScript would be helpful but is not essential. A basic knowledge of ADO.NET is also desirable for the data access chapter.

  • This Silverlight using C# class is designed for Programmers who are interested to create web applications using Silverlight
