Hi,

I am quite new to Silverlight and ESRI ArcGIS and i was wondering if there are any tutorials or vidoes for a better understanding how the combined "stuff" works together.

this is great, but i would like to see/hear some explanations 🙂

Did you see the video
http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/silverlight/help/Getting_Started.htm and the tutorial to get started in expression blend 3 http://resources.esri.com/help/9.3/arcgisserver/apis/silverlight/help/Expression_Getting_Started.htm
?

Note : these links are for ArcGIS SL API 1.x (ArcGIS 9.3). If you want to use the new version 2.0, the documentation is here http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/help/

Hi Caroline,
When teaching the ArcGIS API for Silverlight/WPF 2 day class, I have been refering the students to the video recorded tech workshops from the ESRI Developer Summit last March.  There are 3 or 4 really great presentations about Silverlight amoung all the other 60 or so presentations.

Thx for the links!!

Is it just me or are there a lot of introductions but no really medium-pro tutorials?

if anyone have some good links with code and explanations, just post it!

My experience is that it's not the ArcGIS API that's the hard part. It's getting started with and understanding Silverlight.
For that I recommend the resources mentioned here: http://www.silverlight.net/getstarted/

Once you "get" Silverlight, our Sample SDK will quickly take you the rest of the way.
