| Learn more about Silverlight’s flexibility including its .NET-based framework, integration with existing web technologies (including Apache, PHP, JavaScript and XHTML), development languages (including C#, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Visual Basic.NET and others), role-specific tools based on Microsoft’s .NET-connected software features, Microsoft Expression Studio (for creating interactive user interfaces and rich media experiences) for the development of standards-compliant sites. Microsoft Visual Studio helps create client/server code using Microsoft IntelliSense and cross-platform tools, presentations in full design fidelity using XAML (Extensible Application Markup Language, for initializing structured values and objects), the Extensible Control Model (for adding rich content and behaviors, code reuse and sharing), and the .NET-connected software for Ajax-enabled websites.
