Development of a XLST template editing solution using the Windows Presentation Foundation system

The thesis focuses on the development of Visual Studio 2010 extension, which will allow easier editing of XSLT templates stored in SQL database. In addition to editing, the extension must also ensure proper communication with Microsoft SQL database server as well as with Team Foundation Server. In this thesis we present Visual Studio 2010 as a development tool and the various options for extending it. For the development of graphical user interface, a new programming interface named WPF was used that is intended for .NET development of desktop applications. It allows us to produce richer and visually appealing applications that the extension will take advantage of. Then, we follow up with a brief description of the TFS and a model for rapid application development (RAD), which was used in the development of the extension. The result of the thesis is a functional extension for Visual Studio 2010, which is used in Slovenian company B2 d.o.o. for easier editing of XSLT templates. Properly edited template is very important because it affects the rendering of content of the web portal www.spletno-ucenje.com. So, the extension makes developers work a little bit easier and faster
