In this chapter, we have learned how a Silverlight application can be seamlessly integrated inside an HTML web-based app (HTML 4 or 5) and how we can establish communication in both ways (HTML to Silverlight app and Silverlight app to HTML). This lets us easily integrate Silverlight-based islands into existing classic web ecosystems.
In the next chapter, we will continue integrating Silverlight with other technologies and systems. We will learn how to consume standard web services.
