In this chapter, you explored the Silverlight application model in detail. You reexamined the application object and the events it fires. You learned how to pass initialization parameters from different web pages and how to display a custom splash screen while your application is being downloaded. Finally, you explored the resource system that Silverlight uses and considered the many options for deploying resources and class libraries, from placing them alongside your assembly to downloading them only when needed.
