Summary


This chapter covered some important concepts for structuring our application correctly. We discussed resource dictionaries and how are they used, we dived deep into localization of our application, and we finished off discussing the application-level events that Silverlight offers us.

In the last chapter of this book, we are going to discuss application deployment. We will cover configuration of the Silverlight plugin, we will experiment with dynamically loading application resources, and we will finish off with creating a client access policy.
