"WPF/E" (codename) Community Technology Preview for Mac (Dec 2006)

By Scott McNulty

Microsoft has just released the "WPF/E" (codename) Community Technology Preview for Mac (Dec 2006) (gotta love those Microsoft names). What is WPF/E? It is short for 'Windows Presentation Foundation/ Everywhere' which is the new graphical subsystem of the .NET Framework 3.0.

Why do you care about this? Remember that the 'E' stands for everywhere because Microsoft wants people to write cross platform apps with WPF/E. This community technology preview is a browser plugin works in Safari 2.0 and Firefox 1.5.0.8. This preview expires on February 18, 2007.

WPF/E on your Mac! What could be better? I must say, though, that I couldn't get this to work on my MacBook (your mileage may vary).
