Tomorrow is the start of the major event that has been hyped as heralding the most significant changes to Windows in the past 15 years (the last was when Windows 95 was announced). There has been a lot of speculation around what will happen tomorrow. Some people claim it will be the death of Silverlight and even managed code, while others hope to see news about the next version of the Windows Phone operating system. While I am not able to attend the event, I will be watching the keynotes closely, collaborating with my associates in the field who are at the conference, and blogging my insights over the next few days.
I’ve been asked by many customers, fellow developers and Twitter followers to share my thoughts on the Build Conference and, as a Silverlight MVP, what I think about the future of Silverlight. I obviously have a stake in its future as I’m about 2/3 of the way through writing a book about building enterprise applications using Silverlight. So what are my thoughts?
Personally, I think there has been far too much read into the focus on HTML5 and JavaScript. I may be proven wrong, but based on what I’ve seen (and this is all public knowledge as I have no “insider information” about Windows 8) I believe the following will happen:
Those are my predictions, for what they’re worth. I wanted to post these today so I could take a look back over the next few days to see if I was close or completely missed the mark. I’m looking forward to an exciting conference and sharing my thoughts with you as it unfolds!
