Abstract
The previous chapter mentioned the tools required to develop RIAs that utilize the Silverlight technology. At the core of all of these tools is Microsoft’s flagship development product, Visual Studio. This chapter provides an introduction to Visual Studio 2008, the latest version. You will learn about some of the new features that are particularly helpful for developers building RIAs with Silverlight, and then work through an exercise to try out Visual Studio 2008’s enhanced JavaScript IntelliSense and debugging support. Finally, you will have an opportunity to create your first Silverlight application using Visual Studio 2008. Let’s get started with a brief introduction to the Visual Studio IDE.
