Feed Description: A technology blog with a focus on the .NET framework, the Visual Studio .NET tools and the Windows server platform with of course the normal weblog-noise on what's happening in the industry and reviews of the latest geeky gadgets.
Our team - namely Ronnie Saurenmann and our intern, Ruihua Jin - have built an end-to-end hands-on lab for Expression Blend and WPF, that takes you through building a working UI clone of Microsoft Outlook 2007, done 100% in WPF/XAML using Microsoft Expression Blend.
I get a lot of questions from people that want to make their software look like the latest generation Office suite which can be quite a pain using regular Winforms-controls. So this hands-on lab is a great start to learning how to building business applications in WPF.
The lab was successfully run with a public audience two weeks ago and we have now published the lab manual and full source code for you to download and try out.
