- 4. What is Silverlight? Microsoft Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform implementation of the .NET Framework for building and delivering the next generation of media experiences and rich interactive applications (RIA) for the Web. Silverlight unifies the capabilities of the server, the Web, and the desktop, of managed code and dynamic languages, of declarative and traditional programming, and the power of Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).

- 6. Features: Silverlight enables youto create a state-of-the-art application that has the following features: • It is a cross-browser, cross-platform technology. It runs in all popular Web browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari, and on Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OS X. • It is supported by a very small download that installs in seconds. • It streams video and audio. It scales video quality to everything from mobile devices to desktop browsers to 720p HDTV video modes. • It includes compelling graphics that users can manipulate—drag, turn, zoom—directly in the browser. • It reads data and updates the display, but it doesn't interrupt the user by refreshing the whole page. • It provides a consistent experience no matter where it runs.
- 7. What Features Arein Silverlight?
- 8. Extended Features WPF andXAML: Silverlight includes Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) technology, which greatly extends the elements in the browser for creating UI. WPF lets you create immersive graphics, animation, media, and other rich client features, extending browser-based UI beyond what is available with HTML alone. Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) provides a declarative markup syntax for creating WPF Elements.
- 9. Extended Features Extensions toJavaScript: Silverlight provides extensions to the universal browser scripting language that provide powerful control over the browser UI, including the ability to work with WPF elements.
- 10. Extended Features Cross-browser, cross-platformsupport: Silverlight runs the same on all popular browsers (on any platform). You can design and develop your application without having to worry about which browser or platform your users have.
- 11. Extended Features Integration withexisting applications: Silverlight integrates seamlessly with your existing JavaScript and ASP.NET AJAX code to complement functionality you have already created.
- 12. Extended Features Access tothe .NET Framework programming model and to associated tools: You can create Silverlight-based applications using dynamic languages such as managed Jscript and IronPython as well as languages such as C# and Visual Basic. You can use development tools such as Visual Studio to create Silverlight-based applications.
- 13. Extended Features LINQ: Silverlight includes language-integrated query (LINQ), which enables you to program data access using intuitive native syntax and strongly typed objects in .NET Framework languages.

- 18. Deployment and Packaging Contentfor a Web page that contains Silverlight elements can be created by using the following tactics: • Inline XAML and JavaScript. • External XAML files and JavaScript files. • Compressed content package that contains XAML, managed code, images, fonts, and media. Streaming media sources can be referenced from the XAML media elements.
