We\u2019ve just announced the new Silverlight 1.1 Alpha and Orcas Tools support at MIX \u201907! Silverlight is a cross-browser, cross-platform plug-in for building next-gen media experiences and rich interactive applications. Silverlight 1.1 contains a cross-platform CLR, allowing you to use your favorite .NET language rather than JavaScript to build the client-side functionality of your apps.<\/FONT><\/P>\n

Silverlight Tools for Orcas Alpha (http:\/\/www.microsoft.com\/downloads\/details.aspx?FamilyId=6C2B309B-8F2D-44A5-B04F-836F0D4EC1C4&displaylang=en<\/FONT><\/A><\/SPAN>)
*ASP.NET Futures (<\/FONT>http:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?LinkID=89147&clcid=0x409<\/FONT><\/A>)
*Expression Blend 2 May Preview (<\/FONT>http:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?LinkID=79076&clcid=0x409<\/FONT><\/A>)<\/SPAN><\/FONT><\/FONT><\/P>\n

With the tools you can create Silverlight Applications, link them easily to web applications, and debug. The ASP.NET Futures contains the new Xaml and Media controls, making it easy to use Silverlight in a web application (just drag-and-drop the Xaml file onto the designer). Expression Blend is a designer tool for building and editing Xaml, and with it installed the \u2018Open in Expression Blend\u2019 command becomes available (right-click on a Xaml file) allowing you to easily move between the two tools as you\u2019re building a Silverlight application.<\/FONT><\/P>\n
