I’m currently studying for the Beta exam of Silverlight 4. So I thought, why not share what resources I’m using.
To start with one should be familiar with Silverlight of course, but refreshing some of the topics that haven’t be touched that often is always good. This is by far not the definitive learning guide for the exam, but it’s a start. If you know articles that should be in either one of the categories please let me know.
