Silverlight is an internet plug in that displays files that contain a specific blend of XML called XAML. (pronounced zaml) as a vector graphic. Sites can be created using C#, Visual Basic or JavaScript.
A Silverlight web site can be anything from a simply video player, an internet game, right through to a Line of Business application using a host of technologies available such as Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Sockets and SQL for data sources.
There is a lot of emphasis in the web software community to move away from plug-ins such as Silverlight or Flash with the gaining prominence of HTML5. It should be remembered that this is not a ratified standard (2013 at earliest) and will suffer from differing implementations across browsers triggering increased software development time. Silverlight does not suffer from such problems.
