dotnet remoting : WinFX: Remoting with GUIs

Hello EveryOne,

I'm currently playing a little bit with the new wpf in Visual Studio 2005. I
was pretty excited about the posssibilities you have with XAML. I was
wondering if it would be possible to dynamically build up a client's UI?
Meaning like providing just a dumb application who load the necessary UI
over the Web (for instance). Most of the "logic" should be remote.

Has anyone an idea how to build something like this?

Thanks

I've thought about dynamically remoting a GUI too - but it might not be
worth the effort.

Instead, take a look at ClickOnce deployment.

Otherwise - Microsoft has a Custom Forms Designer sample in which it
serializes a Windows form into XML/Binary/etc. It then dynamically rebuilds
the form from the serialized file:
