I enjoy WPF so much, I built a documentation SDK for developers to reference when needing information about the library of control styles, custom controls, color and font resources, and even working XAML examples they could cut and paste.

- Project:
- AGILE Message Center
- Client:
- Open Finance Network
- Target:
- WPF
- Delivery:
- XAML + C#
To help product managers visualize and understand the need for a messaging system within the AGILE application, I took it upon myself to design and develop a working prototype to illustrate my solution. With ~90% production ready code, I could just hand this off to the implementation team. WPF beats a Visio or Powerpoint example any day!
