Abstract: In this work, we will focus on two development tools provided by Microsoft for creating Windows applications. Win-forms are quite old and very popular since the days of Visual Basic 6. However, Microsoft has now developed a new technology called Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). WPF is relatively recent compared to Win-Forms and was first released as a component of the .Net Framework with .Net 3.0. Microsoft has never made it clear that WPF will replace Win-Forms or that the two technologies will coexist. Each tool has advantages and disadvantages over the other. Therefore, we will provide a comparison of the two tools in this work. This enables the developer to choose the best tool to create the aforementioned application.
Keywords: Procedural Approach, Design Options, Controls, WPF,Triggers, Layout, Win-Forms, Memory, Templates, Animation, Control Design, User Interface, Framework & Skinning Structure.
