'd guess that everyone reading this magazine has heard of Silverlight. I'll also guess that not everyone has jumped at the opportunity to "play" with something that had been in beta. The good news is that Silverlight 1.0 is now released! I've spent a lot of time with Silverlight since Microsoft made the Community Technology Preview version available as WPF/E. There's a large gap between a web site without Silverlight and a web site that lets you experience the interactivity of Silverlight. Before you finish reading this article, I hope you'll realize how very easy it is to bridge that gap.
Everyone building web pages is familiar with HTML and, like it or not, you are familiar with JavaScript as well. Those two pieces of knowledge is all the foundation you need to get started with Silverlight 1.0, and this article will show you how to accomplish that transition.
