Sams Teach Yourself WPF in 24 Hours (Sams Teach Yourself...in 24 Hours)

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a completely new way of building

Windows software that differs dramatically from the way it has been

accomplished the past twenty years. Microsoft is recommending that all new

Windows development be done with WPF moving forward. The majority of

what has been written so far about WPF is full of very rich content, and takes

you deep into the internals of the framework, flooding you with information.

This is often overwhelming to programmers new to WPF.

Sams Teach Yourself

WPF in 24 Hours is structured around four differing applications. A tutorial

driven approach is used to guide readers through building each of these

applications, teaching them the most important parts of the underlying

technology along the way. The code is presented in full color throughout, so

that it appears in the book the way it will on the reader's computer screen.

Upon completion of the book, readers should have a sense of accomplishment,

having already built several real applications with the technology.
