Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)


The Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) represents one of the most significant architectural changes to the Windows Operating System since its inception. Specifically, it replaces the ‘HWND’ windowing technology that has been used by Windows since the release of the original Windows Operating System in 1985.   In addition to this architectural revamp, WPF gives developers a number of powerful tools in creating savvy and sophisticated GUI applications: XML authoring by means of XAML, Vector Graphics, Document Management, Styles & Animation, Media file support and 3D programming.
