Welcome to TechEd Europe

  • Artigo

I just got in last night into Barcelona for TechEd Europe.. One thing I love about my job is that I get to span the full range of application space supported by the .NET Framework… As such I think I am the only speaker at Teched doing a server based talk and a smart client talk! Should be fun to see how well I bridge those ;-)

 

The first one is all about the developer designer interaction… For the vast majority of this talk Sam and build up a site from scratch. He plays the role of the designer, and I play the role of the developer… Sam starts with a couple of “comps” (static images of what the site should look like) then uses Expression Web to build up a very compelling site layout and design. Then I use the magic of ASP.NET AJAX to make the site sing and dance and really come alive!

 

The second talk I am doing is not until Friday (which is good, gives me time to polish the demos!) It is all about how to seamlessly use WinForms and WPF together… I think this will be an extremely common scenario as WinForms gives you an amazing level of RAD productivity and WPF gives you the expressiveness and power that great UX sometimes requires. In this talk I will also take a sneak peak at some of the upcoming investments we have for the client space in “Orcas”. I am super excited about those investments which span WinForms and WPF…
