WPF, which stands for Windows Presentation Foundation, is Microsoft’s latest approach to a GUI framework, used with the .NET framework.
But what IS a GUI framework? GUI stands for Graphical User Interface, and you’re probably looking at one right now. Windows has a GUI for working with your computer, and the browser that you’re likely reading this document in has a GUI that allows you to surf the web.
A GUI framework allows you to create an application with a wide range of GUI elements, like labels, textboxes and other well-known elements. Without a GUI framework you would have to draw these elements manually and handle all of the user interaction scenarios like text and mouse input. This is a LOT of work, so instead, most developers will use a GUI framework which will do all the basic work and allow the developers to focus on making great applications.
Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a graphical subsystem by Microsoft for rendering user interfaces in Windows-based applications. WPF, previously known as “Avalon”, was initially released as part of .NET Framework 3.0 in 2006.
