What core technology - XAML & .NET ? AFAIK WinRT is a rewrite and is not compatible with WPF & Silverlight. Silverlight (cross-platform RIA plugin) seems dead.

- loarabia 15y agoCertainly Win8 and Windows Phone are not binary compatible with WPF and Silverlight but if you wander around the portion of msdn dedicated to Metro apps or to phone development and look at the available types and methods from the core runtime up to the presentation layer you can see that the common overlap is very large and that they probably started from the same place.
- MatthewPhillips 15y agoSo the namespaces have changed, but the techniques remain the same. XAML remains the same. I can't imagine anyone expecting their WPF application to compile for a new interface with different metaphors.
