Video Summary
Creating a WPF application is similar to creating a Windows Forms application in that you can drag controls from the Toolbox to the design surface and then write code to handle the events of the controls. You can create WPF applications that are more graphically appealing through the use of Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML). In addition to having a designer, Properties window, and Toolbox, the IDE in WPF projects has a window that contains XAML.
