Bespoke Software Development - Windows Presentation Foundation
StyleTech can develop rich client side bespoke software systems using Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). Before Windows Presentation Foundation, client side bespoke software systems were written using the Win32 library (the Win32 library is still supported as a first class development approach within the latest Microsoft development tools).
Windows Presentation Foundation is a technology that allows client side bespoke software systems to appear with the same fluid transitions that you expect from the latest web applications. Windows Presentation Foundation has been developed with modern best practises allowing StyleTech to create bespoke software systems that are easier to maintain as business requirements change.
Windows Presentation Foundation is written using XAML and has the following features:
- Direct 3D
- Data binding
- LINQ
- Media services
- Templates (control and data)
- Animations
- Imaging
- Effects
- Documents
- Text
- Interoperability
- Alternative input
- Accessibility
Windows Presentation Foundation is included with all versions of Microsoft Windows since Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 (Windows Presentation Foundation is an optional install for Windows XP SP2 / SP3 and Windows Server 2003).
