A recording of the Getting Started with ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF training seminar (broadcast live last month) was recently added to the ESRI Training Web site. This free one-hour seminar is designed to help experienced Web developers understand the features and functionality available through the API.

In the demonstration below, presenter David Martinez of the ESRI product marketing team steps through the process of downloading the ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF from the ESRI Resource Center, creating a project in Visual Studio, and adding some of the code behind a rich Internet application.

Other demonstrations in the seminar show how to add map services and interactive map navigation, execute a geoprocessing task that calculates drive-time polygons, display a progress bar while the geoprocessing task executes, and publish a Silverlight application.

If you want a closer-up look at the code used to build the seminar demos, you can download it from the Code Gallery on the ArcGIS API for Microsoft Silverlight/WPF Resource Center. Look for the entry named LTS Demos for ArcGIS API for Silverlight.
