Sweet Silverlight

Posted in SilverLight, WPF/e by

Some cool stuff is being done with WPF and Silverlight of late. The offical SL release is now out as well as Alpha 1.1 for developers (get them here).
Moonlight is on its way, which with help from Novell will mean Linux users will be able to experinces SL too.

A guy named Jose Fajard from Sydney, Australia (AKA LiquidBoy AKA AdvertBoy) has been doing some cool stuff with a pretty quick turn-around.

Check out this dudes site:

He has a sweet little blog explaining how he is buildiong an online version of iTunes and has a nice bunch on Silverlight controls… ready for download.
Tres cool.

Demo of the controls on his “Beautiful Website”

Source code here on Codeplex for the iTunes app (and for the controls I believe)

Pixel Monkey week!

Not only has SilverLight been official relased (and rebranded from WPF/e) but a nice little paint app to override/replace your basic (oh so basic) windows paint app has been released. Its pretty handy and does most of the stuff I would want out of a paint app and its free and open source so we can pull it apart and look at its guts!
