Description
Full Color: Figures and code appear as they do in Visual Studio. If you want to write Windows apps with XAML, one person can help you more than anyone else: Adam Nathan.
He has built a well-deserved reputation as the world's #1 expert on putting it to work.
Now, he's written the definitive, practical XAML tutorial and reference: XAML Unleashed. Nathan answers the questions you're most likely to ask, walks through the tasks you're sure to perform, and helps you avoid problems as you use XAML.
You'll learn how to create effective user interfaces for line-of-business apps, consumer apps, reusable controls, or anything else.
These techniques will be invaluable whether you're creating universal Windows apps or working with Silverlight or WPF. XAML Unleashed is packed with C# and XAML code examples that are fully color-coded to match their appearance in Visual Studio--the same approach that has made Nathan's previous Unleashed books so popular.
