Eclipse Tools for Silverlight

Check out this open source project "Eclipse Tools for Silverlight" which allows you to use Eclipse to create Silverlight applications. Basically it's an Eclipse plug-in, with a XAML editor (with code hints and completion), a SL project system and SL compiler, and in a nice touch the SL projects created by Eclipse will be fully supported by Visual Studio and Expression Studio (designer-developer collaboration, remember!?)

 

 

Some of the features in this build are:

• Project resource management in Eclipse IDE
• Project explorer to show a configuration view of project resources.
• Basic XAML Visual editor with instant preview and code completion assist.
• C# code editor with syntax colorization, keywords and template code completion assist
• Automatic Build & Run
• Configurable Web application launch facilities
