Oxite, an ASP.NET MVC based blog
Description
Ever wonder how the experts organize their XAML-based projects?
With the help of Jaime Rodriguez, the WPF guy on my team, we've put together a 3 part video series on XAML Guidelines. The videos along with a whitepaper available at the end of this week answer questions like "How do you structure your application?" "How do you work across disciplines?" and more.
In this episode, Jaime interviews the trifecta from Identity Mine - Jonathan Russ (developer), Nathan Dunlap (integrator) and Jared Potter (designer).

This video is longer than normal episodes so I thought I'd break the video into time codes:
1:45 – How do you structure your projects?
3:36 - Where do you place images and resources?
5:14 – How do you partition Resource Dictionaries?
7:06 – How do you keep generic.xaml organized?
8:00 – Do you start with Simple Styles or Blend?
8:43 – Static Resources or Dynamic Resources?
11:12 – What are your naming conventions?
15:36 - Does the x:Name attribute have to be first?
16:49 – Do you have a special way you format your XAML?
19:38 – Do you add Attributes to your controls?
24:52 – Who creates the control templates?
26:58 – Anything else?

DavidKelley Great Job Guys. Looking forward to Part 2. I would like to hear more about the design patterns as applied to Silverlight. I know at IM we use MVVM alot but in Silverlight I guess I'm leaning towards pMVP or something like that especially for smaller projects. I've collected some info on the topic at http://hackingsilverlight.blogspot.com/search/label/architecture anyway I'm looking foward to part 2

rhm The sound is unfortunately rather poor on this video. Makes it hard to hear what they are saying even with my speakers turned up loud. -
AdamKinney Sorry about that, the audio is pretty quiet. We need to start handing out mics to people before they do videos.

aL_ cool stuff
also, yay for widescreen encoding
-
esoteric Yep. Nothing kills a good interview like bad audio - clipping, distortion and too low volume. And God forbid anyone uses constant background music - like reading text over a difference clouds effect. You know who you are, B.K.

-
robstheman Hi,
Has the whitepaper for this been posted? Can someone post the link to this please?
Thanks
Rob -
AdamKinney I'm tracking down the whitepaper, sorry for the delay. I think it got lost in the great Seattle snowstorm we had during the holidays
-
AdamKinney A draft of the whitepaper has been posted on Jaime's blog XAML Guidelines Part 3
