As part of a large project with many client-apps my company is confrontated with the question which technolgy is more suitable.
There are several advantages using Web-technology such ase deployment, platform-independency, maintenance and of course the certainity that HTML5/JS will further developed in future. But there are also advantages using WPF such as more powerful framework
and no browser-restrictions, which is from the point of a developer more convenient i think. But I read something about WPF that it is not Microsoft's future way to go, instead of Web (HTML5/JS) is.
The project will be developed about 4 years may be even more, so my company not want to develop with a technology which will be depricated when the project is finished.
So what are the plans from Microsoft with WPF in future? Will it go away in 5 or 10 years? On which technology Microsoft counts?
