XAML or C#?

Generally, using XAML will give you a much better overview, since the page is a hierarchical structure of objects and XAML is a very nice way of defining that structure. In code, the structure gets flipped around since you must define the innermost object first, making it harder to read the structure of your page. This was shown in an earlier example in this chapter. Having said that, it is generally a matter of preference as to how you decide to define the GUI. This book will use XAML rather than C# in the projects to come.
