    Want to see the (bright) Future of Silverlight?

    The latest release of Silverlight - ver.4 was released earlier this year. For me this was the first Silverlight release that was stable and mature enough so that I could recommend to anyone building business applications to use it broadly. Now, six months later, we can see that the Silverlight adoption is very high and that there are a lot of great tools built with it. Regardless of all the recent comments and mostly speculations about the future of Silverlight I believe that this will be the primary MS platform for building applications for Windows and Mac in years to come. At MIX this year, the Silverlight platform was also introduced to...

    The World of Model&ndash;View&ndash;ViewModel - through my eyes.

    The Big UI Problem Since the User Interface came on the scene of software development, it is constantly one of the biggest problems. It is really hard to design the architecture of the User Interfaces, User Interactions and deal with all the logic around, all the different states and behaviors. It is not an easy task also to separate the UI logic from the other layers of the architecture. On the other hand, even if you develop the whole application, you should start to think about how to automatically test the UI (unit tests, components tests, integration tests…), how to maintain it in a way...

    RadMediaPlayer true FullScreen support

    Telerik's official Q3 2010 release just came public introducing many improvements and new features. One of them is RadMediaPlayer's full screen support. Prior to Q3 2010 release developers had to implement additional logic to provide full screen support for their apps using RadMediaPlayer. With the new release users can experience true full screen apps without any custom code. Full screen support is build inside the media player but can be easily customized by using the IsFullScreenProperty or attaching a handler to the FullScreenChanged event. In addition, two new properties are available which you can use to customize whether the video controls panel and...
