Windows Projects
Selecting Windows Projects will show you a list of project types that can be created for
desktop applications, including Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), Windows
Forms, and Console. Console applications are for building applications that don’t need a
graphical user interface (also known as GUI and pronounced “goo-ee”) and are generally
for creating utilities that administrators can write scripts with or for writing a quick test for
your program. You’ll be using Console applications when learning VB and C# languages
later in this book because it is a simple way to concentrate on the language without any
distractions. Windows Forms is an older desktop GUI technology. The new desktop GUI
technology for .NET is called WPF, which is covered in a later chapter in this book.
