What is the difference between winforms and wpf?

Question

Hello! I've never worked with wpf before and am trying to figure out what it really is. I've developed a number of winform apps and am trying to decide if/when I would be better to use wpf.

Answer 1

wpf is completely new technology which use xaml for better performance. also patterns like mvvm are used to keep separate layers of ui and business logic.

win forms are easy to learn but there is a learning curve in wpf.
