Silverlight Web Applications


Music eXpress Silverlight Demonstration
SYNOPSIS Microsoft Silverlight is a browser plugin from Microsoft that provides a rich user experience for applications delivered via the internet and run in a web browser. The power of Silverlight is that it delivers an end-user experience that is virtually identical to a Windows Desktop application, yet provides the ability to access the application from any web browser with no installation required (other than the Silverlight plugin). The following screenshots are from the Music eXpress demonstration software available from the dobbs enterprise solutions website (the demo site will be launched May 1st 2012). The Music eXpress demonstration uses the example of a fictitious wholesaler of musical instruments to illustrate how a full-featured business application can be delivered via the internet. As you can see from the screenshots below, once logged in the user interface is virtually identical to the Windows Desktop application presented earlier in this document.
