What the heck is XAML?
Separates the front-end from the back-end Simple declarative programming language suitable for constructing and initializing .NET Objects Usually the most concise way to represent user interfaces (or other hierarchies of objects) Doesn’t need a compile to render The language that almost all WPF related tools emit

WPF – how does it work?
Built on Top of Direct 3D Converted to 3D triangles, textures and other Direct3D objects & then rendered by hardware Benefits of hardware acceleration & performance due to work being off-loaded to GPUs (unlike GDI based systems) Ensures the maximum benefit of new hardware and drivers Software rendering pipeline as fallback

The GDI & USER subsystems were introduced in Windows 1.0 in 1985 OpenGL – Early 90s DirectX – 1995 Goal: Overcome the limits of GDI+ & USER with the productivity of Windows Forms

Does WPF enable me to do something I couldn’t have done before?
No. Unless you factor in time & money… Is DirectX dead?
No. It is more applicable to advanced 3D developers writing hard-core “twitch” games.
Are Winforms dead?
No. …but it will not be advanced; the last version was 2.0 in .NET 2005.
WPF / Winforms Bastardization Windows 98 Supports WinForms Does WPF run better on Vista than on XP?
Yes.
3D objects only get anti-aliasing on Windows Vista or Later Non-rectangular windows only get hardware acceleration on Vista. Vista has a driver model that helps with resource contention
Lightweight WPF runtime Interactive experiences for devices, PC, & Mac platforms (and others…) Strict subset of Windows Presentation Foundation Lightweight download Programming model uses XAML + JScript Access to WPF tooling WPF-based Tools
