Microsoft WinFX preview is offered
Microsoft this week released a December Community Technology Preview (CTP) for the WinFX managed APIs. The CTP is available for public review.
WinFX features the Windows Presentation Foundation presentation subsystem, formerly known as "Avalon;" the Windows Communication Foundation Web services platform, which had been called "Indigo," and Windows Workflow Foundation, for building workflow-enabled applications. WinFX is planned for inclusion in the upcoming Windows Vista OS.
Also featured in the CTP is "Cider," which consists of UI designer tools planned for the proposed "Orcas" version of the Visual Studio development tool platform. Cider leverages Windows Presentation Foundation.
