XAML ... Flash Killer
Keep in mind when watching this that it is completely data driven. What that means is that unlike Flash were things are embedded inside the application, this application is simply a framework that goes out and pulls in what it needs on the fly. I am sure that many of you are saying “Flash can do that”… yes, flash may be able to do some of this, but I would challenge Flash to accomplish what these fine gentlemen have with XAML and C#.
The Fluid guys did a keynote demo highlighting the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).
Darren of Fluid and Karstens of Microsoft wrote a whiteper titled “The North Face In-Store Explorer Proof-of-Concept: A White Paper”, now available on MSDN. It has a great deal of information on how they did it, including code and XAML samples.
