Silverlight is different from flash.

One of the biggest differences between Silverlight and flash is that flash is born to be streaming media, while Silverlight is supplemented and supported by the day after tomorrow. Because Silverlight must be displayed (run) after the entire xap application package is downloaded, and Flash can be displayed after the first download. Although Silverlight supports video playback, video streams are processed as special objects rather than the core model of the system.

I remember reading Flash tutorials a long time ago. The progress display is implemented by each SWF file, so the progress display can be varied. The Silverlight loading screen is standard, at least before the first xap file is downloaded. According to the introduction in this article, you can customize the display of the loading progress, but you need to specify the XAML file separately and require additional JSCode.

Therefore, in the download and running modes, Silverlight and Flash are essentially different. Silverlight is more like a standard desktop application, while Flash is like a streaming media movie. Both Silverlight, air, and javafx use the RIA route instead of the streaming route. Intuitively, streaming is more interesting, and movies are applications.Program.
