Visual Studio LightSwitch 2011
is a simplified, self-service development tool that enables you to
create business applications quickly and easily for the desktop and
cloud. I first announced LightSwitch at the VS Live conference in August
2010 and have since written a few posts including detailed tutorials.
For those of you unfamiliar with it, it starts with the premise that
most business applications consist of data and the screens that users
interact with. LightSwitch simplifies attaching to data with data source
wizards or creating data tables with table designers. It also includes
screen templates for common tasks so you can create clean interfaces for
your applications without being a designer. Basic applications can be
written without a line of code. However, you can add custom code that is
specific to your business problem without having to worry about setting
up classes and methods.
As part of today's announcement, I've put together a video that highlights some of the features within LightSwitch, along with sessions on how to build applications using it.
