Silverlight Toolkit

Silverlight Toolkit is a collection of free, open-source tools and controls designed to extend the capabilities of Silverlight, a framework for building rich internet applications. Developed by Microsoft, the toolkit provides developers with pre-built components like advanced charts, layout controls, and user interface elements, making it easier to create interactive and visually appealing web applications. It facilitates smoother development processes by offering ready-to-use features, allowing programmers to focus on more complex functionalities without starting from scratch. Though Silverlight is now largely outdated, the toolkit played a significant role in its development.
