 Answer:

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is a graphical subsystem for rendering user interfaces in Windows-based applications. WPF, previously known as "Avalon", was initially released as part of .Net Framework 3.0.

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is based on XML and vector graphics, which uses 3D computer graphics hardware and Direct3D technologies.

Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) has a comprehensive set of application-development features that include Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML), controls, data binding, layout, 2-D and 3-D graphics, animation, styles, templates, documents, media, text, and typography.

Programming in WPF is same as programming the ASP.Net and Windows Forms applicationa, means instantiate classes, set properties, call methods, and handle events, all using a .Net Framework programming language, such as C# or VB.Net.
