XAML (short for Extensible Application Markup Language, and pronounced "Zammel") is a declarative XML-based language used to define objects and their properties, relationships and interactions. Originally created as an acronym for Extensible Avalon Markup Language (Avalon being the code-name for the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) technology), XAML is often mistakenly perceived as a WPF technology. In fact, XAML is used extensively in the .NET Framework 3.0 technologies, particularly in WPF, where it is used as a user interface markup language to define UI elements, data binding, eventing, and other features, and in Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), in which workflows themselves can be defined using XAML. The Extensible Markup Language (XML) is a W3C-recommended general-purpose markup language for creating special-purpose markup languages, capable of describing many different kinds of data. ...

XAML elements map to Common Language Runtime object instances whereas attributes map to CLR properties and events on those objects. In typical usage, XAML files will be produced by visual design and developer tools, such as Microsoft Expression Interactive Designer, Microsoft Visual Studio or XAMLPad. The resulting XML is compiled into a .xaml file, which is inserted as a resource into a .NET Framework assembly. At run-time, the framework engine extracts the .baml file from assembly resources, parses it, and creates a corresponding WPF visual tree or workflow.

When used in WPF, XAML is used to describe graphically rich visual user interfaces, such as those created by Adobe Flash. XUL and UIML are other examples of XML-based user interface languages. The language allows for the definition of both 2D and 3D objects, rotations, animations, and a variety of other effects and features. This subsystem is a part of . ...

Anything that is created or implemented in XAML can be expressed using a more traditional .net language, such as C# or Visual Basic .NET. However, a key aspect of the XAML technology is the more simple approach required for tools because it is simply XML. Consequently, a variety of products are emerging, particularly in the WPF space, to create XAML files. One such example is Aurora. Being XML-based, XAML allows analysts, designers and developers to share artifacts more realistically and to enable these artifacts to be re-edited by any of these roles without requiring additional re-integration work by the others. The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. ...
