Aurora is a Visual Designer that produces XAML documents from the Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) Object Model using WinFX.

Aurora is more than a drawing or painting program. Aurora works with the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) object model and the Visual Tree. Aurora allows you to visually create and edit various levels in the WPF document.

In addition to creating user interfaces and drawings, Aurora allows you to apply attached dependency properties to visual objects; you can also define custom content for content controls. Thanks to Aurora you can use or create libraries of objects before reusing them in your applications.
