Aug 17, 2011 Since the new Windows Phone Marketplace for ‘Windows Phone Mango’ is nearly ready for submission of your apps, developers will be happy to know that today we are releasing the Silverlight for Windows Phone Toolkit (August 2011) add-on. This is a great new release of extra controls and should let. Nov 11, 2011 Silverlight toolkit for Windows Phone is a opensource framework which provides additional controls for the developing Windows Phone Applictaion apart from the standard Windows Phone controls. These controls are available for download including the sourcecode which is Microsoft Public Licensed and can be downloaded. Oct 11, 2019 The Microsoft® Silverlight® 5 SDK contains online documentation, online samples, libraries and tools for developing Silverlight 5 applications. Usage of the SDK is subject to the SDK License (included in the package).
This repository was migrated from CodePlex to the MicrosoftArchive organization where it is not actively maintained. If a community were interested in adopting or taking forward key XAML-related components, that would be awesome.
Straight from Microsoft, the Silverlight Toolkit provides the developer community with new components, functionality, and an efficient way to help shape product development. Toolkit releases include open source code, samples & docs, plus design-time support for the Silverlight browser plugin.

** This was the final release of the Silverlight Toolkit in December 2011 **

If you have previously installed the Silverlight 5 September 2011 toolkit, please make sure to uninstall before installing the December 2011 toolkit.
Note: You must install XNA Studio in order to use the new Silverlight 3D templates. Otherwise the new templates will not show up.
