Another geek musician, Bob Familiar, has decided to start working with Silverlight to revamp how he displays some of his compositions on his web site. Bob just posted a multi-part series where he sets out to demonstrate some features of:
- resolution (size) independent UI
- layout
- controls
- custom controls
- invoking WCF services
- data binding, templates and styles
- dynamic xaml
- HTML integration
- DeepZoom
He is including source to his efforts if you want to tag along. I’d like to see Bob tackle styling the DataGrid a bit more…it looks “excel-ish” which I don’t think matches the rest of his efforts, that would be a good demonstration of some advanced styling effects and I think he could even encapsulate other features (like his DeepZoom view of intruments used) into a master-detail view. Follow along with Bob…
