PhillyXAML.org -  The Philadelphia XAML Developers Group

The purpose of PhillyXAML.org is to promote the adoption of Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation and Silverlight technologies through education and community. Over the last few years, these technologies have become more widespread, gaining much traction in the industry as the next generation .NET application development platforms.

The intent of the group is to further the education of individual developers, working with WPF or Silverlight, and to hopefully reach out to new developers who are interested in learning a new technology set. Through monthly meetings at the Microsoft office in Malvern, PA, we hope to reach a large audience of next generation technology providers.

We hope to see you at the meetings which will take place on the second Thursday of each month, 6-8 PM (Pizza and networking at 5:30), with Q&A and giveaways at 8:00. We have some great presenters who lead the field, lined up as well so expect to walk away with a lot from each and every jam-packed meeting.

PhillyXAML.org is currently sponsored by Perficient and Microsoft. If your company would like to sponsor a meeting, or you have a topic you would like to present, please contact me at phillyxaml@comcast.net.
