Accelerated Silverlight 2 will get you up to speed with
version2of Silverlight quickly and efficiently. Author Jeff Scanlon
assumes you're already comfortable with the basics of .NET coding
and with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), andhelps you build
on your existing knowledge to make your journey to Silverlight 2
proficiency as quick and painless as possible. Where coding
techniques are similar to other, more established areas of .NET,
he'll say so. Likewise, where there's a syntax or conceptual gotcha
that you're existing coding habits will walk you into, he'll point
that out, too.
You'll find fasttrack coverage of all the most important
elements of the Silverlight 2 technology ranging from XAML to
standard controls, from dealing with media to networking, from
testing to deployment. Two fully-worked sample applications
conclude your path to Silverlight 2 mastery because nothing
reinforces your understanding of how concepts fit together as much
as looking at finished code.
The book is based on the assumption that readers will already be
very comfortable with the workings of the .NET Framework. Knowledge
of Expression Blend is useful, but the author doesn't assume that
you're a master of it. You'll learn the Blend techniques that you
need to know as you go along. By the end of the book, the author
will have provided you with a sound, concise, path to mastery of
Silverlight 2. What you'll learn Emigrate your existing .NET skills
to Silverlight 2 as quickly as possibleLearn everything you need to
know to start developing quality Silverlight 2 applications with
confidenceExplore techniques and best practices in codeheavy,

This book is for .NET developers, whether they are already using
.NET 3.5 or are in the process of migrating up from .NET 2.0. The
book aims to ease people's migration paths as much as possible. The
authors include notes to highlight important features of .NET 3.5
that people need to be aware of and also to highlight where
Silverlight's working and syntax differs substantially than that of
Windows Presentation Foundation.
