[This topic is pre-release documentation and is subject to change in future releases of Microsoft Silverlight.]
You will need the Silverlight runtime and Microsoft Expression Blend 2.5
June 2008 Preview. You can download the runtime and
a free trial of Expression Blend 2 Preview from
http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/. From this same site you can
download other useful tools for creating Silverlight applications including Visual Studio
2008 as well as other important Expression Suite designer tools (e.g. Expression Design and Expression Media Encoder Preview.);
however, these extra tools besides Blend are not needed to complete this QuickStart.
