Dates and full course list

This is a Featured Course

Silverlight for Developers Course Overview

Course Code:	NET0150
Price:	£1250
Duration:	3 days
DATE:
Who should attend:	Developers who are looking to produce cross-browser rich internet applications using Microsoft Silverlight
Prerequisite Skills:	Some experience of developing AJAX, Python, Ruby, or .NET applications (.NET v1.1 or 2.0) and an understanding of general web technologies.

 

Microsoft Silverlight is all about delivering a rich web User Experience (UX), and is a strong contender in the Rich Internet Application battle, whose champions have long been Adobe's Flash and Flex products, along with many implementations of AJAX.

Unlike Windows Presentation Foundation, Silverlight is aimed squarely at the Web and features cross-browser support, so it doesn't support the Windows APIs which allow access to 3D graphics hardware acceleration, but it does promise HD-quality streaming of video and a full set of rich media features.

Course Content
