Silverlight is a lightweight browser plugâin that frees your code from the traditional confines of the browser. It is a rulesâchanging, groundbreaking technology that allows you to run rich client applications right inside the browser.

Silverlight is evolving fast, and you need a reliable guidebook to make sense of it.
