  9. Developer and Designer Workflow

  10. Demo Summary • Visual Studio 2005 • WPF Designer ‘Cider’ • Expression Blend • Layout and Design • Animation • Styles and Templates • Resources

  11. Introducing “WPF/E” • A Better Web Experience • Stunning vector imaging, text, animation, audio and video • Multi-platform support, Windows and Mac OS X (Intel and PPC) • Multi-browser support (IE, Safari, Firefox) • More Productive • Web friendly AJAX + XML (XAML) • Tap into full MS platform & tools for developers and designers • Efficient & Effective • Small, friction-free client install (~1.1 MB) • Cost-effective delivery of live and on-demand audio/video with Emmy® Award winning Windows Media platform

  12. “WPF/E” and WPF • WPF/E is not WPF Everywhere • New name/branding will reflect this • Similar because: • Share XAML subset • Common tools and developer experience • Part of Microsoft designer/developer continuum • Different because: • Goals and Customers: web vs. client • Size and Features: WPF/E is 2.5 MB (.NET 3.0 is much larger) • Implementation: WPF/E is a platform independent • Reach: WPF/E provides a consistent experience across OS and browsers • Security: WPF/E is always sandboxed

  13. Target Scenarios • Media • Content providers (NBC, MTV, Fox/MySpace) • Social sites (MySpace, VBlogs) • Interactive Content • Product brand sites (BMW.com, Ford.com, etc) • Marketing sites (http://www.vista.si). • Rich Internet Applications

  14. “WPF/E” in Action

  15. “WPF/E” V1 Features • Platform Characteristics • Small and factored • 1.1Mb core, <5Mb with full prog. model • Ability to self service • Sandboxed Application Model • Cross-platform, cross-browser • Windows XP+, Mac • Components • Audio and Video (WMV, WMA, MP3) and Imaging (PNG, JPG) • Vector graphics, text and animations • Basic elements that allow for the construction of higher level components • Canvas, shapes, input and eventing • Asynchronous downloader • JavaScript programming model • Alpha quality tools support (Expression and Visual Studio) "WPF/E" Presentation and Media Runtime Java Script DOM API Browser Hosting XAML Media (video, audio) Presentation Core Servicing Component

  16. Building “WPF/E” applications with Visual Studio and Expression

  17. Conclusion • WPF is the rich platform for UI on Windows • WPF/E is a sub-set that is cross-platform and cross-browser • Developer and Designer Workflow is a key benefit of WPF (and “WPF/E”) • Visual Studio 2005 WPF Designer (“Cider”) • Expression Blend and Design • Rich UX is a critical and intuitive part of the design and development process!
