Hello Sahil It can be a Misapprehension; I don't see much Hail for the WPF arena. To support my statement I would say: HTML 5 was a major trend changer JavaScript maturity & JQuery accelerated it World of Apps made a huge opportunity to customers & Developers Deferring to client side execution freeing up server cycles also recognizing speed Silverlight is such a Technology with fading graphs. I don't think just HTML 5 was a replacement for Silverlight; but JavaScript JQuery powered the client-side processing with light foot spaces. Windows Forms was replaced by WPF although legacy applications exists. The Power of WPF where DirectX rendering & XAML are not meant to compete against Windows 8 Apps which could be termed as a new Trend Taker against WPF. Apps provide more opportunity & applications to the developers & customers respectively. I prefer the following paths: If you are a WPF developer continue there & Focus learning Windows 8 Apps a bit (90:10 approach) If you are not a WPF developer invest on something with wings (Windows 8 Apps HTML5 JQuery)
