Toying with Expression

I couldn’t resist downloading Expression last night and toying around. I will admit, I’M COMPLETELY LOST! :-) Me being a code geek didn’t lend to well to the IDE’s. I wanted to code but each IDE I downloaded (Interactive Designer and Graphics Designer) both seemed to be only for the graphical side of things.

I tried thinking back to Mix ‘06 for whatever I could remember about thw workflow but all I found was…I was missing a step. LOL. I know Visual Studio can be used to create (code) WPF apps, which is my desire, but I wanted to look into the other IDE’s and more-specifically, XAML.

If you follow my blog, or at least read the archives, you’d see my comparison between MXML and XAML. Last night all of those thoughts/feelings came right back to me after viewing some XAML code. XAML does amaze me at how granular you can get with design detail.

Well, nothing more really to say until I get something going in terms of code/samples. Hopefully I can get some nice apps going. Keep in touch and we’ll see what happens over the next few months.
