Course Description

Learn the WPFand XAMLconcepts and tools that you will need to build fully functional UI-applications with the modern UI-building framework, Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). This is the best WPF course here on Udemy.
Teaching ApproachNo fluff, no ranting, no beating the air. I respect your time. The course material is succinct, yet comprehensive. All important concepts are covered. Particularly important topics are covered in-depth. Don't forget that this course has English subtitles, so if you don't understand my accent, feel free to turn them on.
Take this course and you will be satisfied.
Build a strong foundation with this WPFTutorialToday, almost all applications have rich UI, console applications are very specific. Learning the essentials of WPF and XAMLputs a powerful and very useful tool at your fingertips. Being familiar with WPF will make it absolutely easy to move to Universal Windows Platform (UWP) if needed, because these technologies rely basically on the same principles and they are both based onXAML.
Content and OverviewThis course is primarily aimed at beginner to intermediate developers. It provides solid theoretical base reinforced by tons of practical material.
WPF is a very wide platform and its impossible to cover all its features in a single course, or in a single book. Thats why this course includes all the topics needed for the developing of a full-fledged Windows UI-application, sacrificing some advanced topics such as interoperation with Windows Forms, skinning, creating custom markup extensions etc. The most beneficial aspect of this course is that it gives you the deep understanding of the WPF platform. For example, you will understand how the layout process really works. It helps to compose XAML quicker. Sometimes youll find yourself baffled by the events system of WPF without deep understanding of how it really works.
In short, the course covers the following topics:
Basic notions of UI-developmentControlsLayoutData-BindingCore-Types of WPFEvents and Dependency PropertiesTemplatesResourcesStylesUser ControlsCustom ControlsWPF application model (threading model, app life-cycle)In the end we will recap what you have learned and you will try to understand where you have to go further with intention to master your skills. Here we will have a discussion of different paths you can go on.------------------------------------------------------------Keywords related to the course:

You don't get say the course is for all levels and then casually type lambda expressions as if they are self explanatory and everyone should know them.
I can see how for someone who's already pretty advanced, this course would be amazing, but for beginners, not a chance!
The instructor knows so much about the topic matter but the teaching method is almost non-existent.
Wonder how much he can recall from this review after reading it precisely once? Would it be fair to now say to him, "and now you know" the text of this review?
Nobody learns from being exposed to the information only once. Otherwise we would all be robots and finish entire school years in weeks or days, by just reading the textbooks.
And yet, "and now you know how to X" is all you can expect to get. No further explanations, no more review later on, a demo of the code working and that's it!
Currently at section 9 but really doubt the practical aspects will change anything.
To sum up, great course if you've already mastered C#, very hard to follow for anyone else.

The presenter is very knowledgeable and explains concepts well.

By Roland Couture on 9/27/2020

Well done. I appreciated the attention to (and not losing sight of) the underlying class hierarchies!

By Helena Coppieters on 9/24/2020

yes, until now

By Babu p on 9/7/2020

its nice.But not described while typing.Already coding snippets are there and used that

By Mosuli Nodangala on 8/19/2020

Yes, I wanted to learn XAML/ WPF from scratch. I lost the lecturer on the last section when he did something in Resharper. Also the copying and pasting on the last section was not helping at all, but confusing.
I will enroll for MVVM to study it further, its interesting.
The overall course was superb.

By Maximilian Rck on 8/11/2020

The copy-pasting in the examples wasnt my type of thing. I like to understand code and want that the code would be explained maybe just a little.
The describing of the other things with all its features could be way more detailed.

Yeah cool !

Although this course declared to be for beginners, it is not friendly to beginners at all. Many of the basic materials are not covered, and the course was hard to understand.
