Silverlight for Windows Phone

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Silverlight, a cross-platform, cross-browser implementation of the .NET Framework for building media experiences and rich interactive applications for the Web on desktop computers, is also available for Windows Phone.

Silverlight includes a runtime that is optimized to display content on memory-constrained devices. Silverlight for Windows Phone is hosted on the client device and does not support applications that are hosted in a browser.

To understand the documents in this section, you should be familiar with Silverlight 4. The goal of Microsoft is to make Silverlight fully compatible across all supported devices and operating systems. However, there are a number of differences because of hardware differences and device-specific requirements. Topics in this section describe those differences.
