What you need for this book

As with all WPF development, you'll need to have the .NET Framework and a version of Microsoft's Visual Studio integrated development environment software installed on your computer.

You'll be able to use versions as old as 2010, but in order to use the code in the book that takes advantage of the latest .NET Framework improvements, you'll need to use one of the newer versions. Note that any edition of Visual Studio can be used, from the top of the line Enterprise edition to the free Community (2015) edition.
