[SILVERLIGHT] Missing controls

Silverlight is wonderful....
But the lack of important controls like TextBox, Button, Grid, StackPanel and so on is a little bit confusing.

I'm quite sure that Microsoft will fix this in a future release, probably with the upcoming Silverlight 2.0.


Meanwhile, I've been starting a toolkit project to include those controls.
The roadmap for version 1.0 will be:

  • TextBox
  • Button
  • RepeatButton
  • RadioButton
  • CheckBox
  • StackPanel
  • Grid
Though, this is a geek-only project, as we all know that Microsoft's controls will integrate better.

Stay tuned for more info.
