Up to this point, it has only been possible tobuild WPF applications manually, mainly by hand-coding in XAML-WPF’sdeclarative XML-based markup language. The soon-to-be-released VisualStudio 2008 provides the full set of developer tools you need to takeadvantage of this exciting technology.The combination of WPF and VisualStudio 2008 represents the start of the next generation of Windowsapplications.
