revolution!

Windows Forms

If it is the oldest why to use that?

Better not ☺

But…

First you should understand background and be able to integrate with old applications

Second you may have to do something in old application.Be the person everyone can count on!

Why WinForms are not good enough?

• Created when computers were not so powerful

• Not adopted to new graphics cards

• Created when only one screen resolution was used

Solution:

1st revolution – screed diversity!

• Created when only one type of the device was created

Now we have:PCTabletsIoT DevicesPhonesHoloLensXboxSurface Hub

Write once use on many devices!

Why WPF is not good enough?

Solution:

2nd revolution – devices diversity!

Why UWP is not good enough?

• Microsoft is not alone

• Other technologies are important too!• Android

• iOS

Solution:

3rd revolution – platforms diversity!

Maybe other way around?

Progressive Web Apps

+

Responsive Design

From web development to native clients

So maybe everything this way…

What if I have old application?

Option 1: Migrate

Bridge to the Universal Windows Platform

At this point your app has

Modern installation and deployment

Activation via Tiles, file types or URI protocols

App identity, resulting in access to more UWP APIs

Using UWP controls inside WPF and WinForms

Option 2: Integrate

XAML Island
