Microsoft Expression Web, code-named Quartz, is an HTML editor and general web design program by Microsoft. It is part of the Expression Studio suite. It is not considered by Microsoft to be a WYSIWYG editor[1], nor is it touted as such. The EW community FAQ describes EW as an HTML editor that "is designed to make quality, standards-compliant websites that display properly on all browsers. "Expression Web can design and develop web pages using XML, CSS 2.1, ASP.NET or ASP.NET AJAX, XHTML, XSLT, PHP and javascript. EW4 requires the .NET Framework 4.0 and Silverlight 4.0 to install and run.[2]. Microsoft SharePoint Designer provides related Microsoft technology. It offers Visual Studio support for ASP.NET applications. It has some legacy support for classic ASP. Expression Web uses its own standards-based rendering engine which is different from Internet Explorer's Trident engine. Microsoft Expression Web provides the ability to install add-ons from third-party developers, extending its capabilities.

Expression Blend

Microsoft Expression Blend is a user interface design tool developed and sold by Microsoft for creating graphical interfaces for web and desktop applications that blend the features of these two types of applications. It is an interactive, WYSIWYG front-end for designing XAML-based interfaces for Windows Presentation Foundation and Silverlight applications. It is one of the applications in the Microsoft Expression Studio suite. Expression Blend supports the WPF text engine with advanced OpenType typography and ClearType, vector-based 2D widgets, and 3D widgets with hardware acceleration via DirectX.

Expression Encoder

Microsoft Expression Encoder (formerly Expression Media Encoder, now titled as Microsoft Expression Encoder 4 Pro) is a Windows-based program for encoding digital video for Silverlight-based web video. Expression Encoder can be used to create video compressed VC-1 as well as H.264 for distribution via Microsoft Silverlight. Expression Encoder features a WPF-based modern graphical user interface as well as a command line interface. It supports Silverlight player controls and Silverlight templates. Microsoft Expression Encoder is available in two different editions: Retail edition, which is the full-featured commercial incarnation of the product and Express edition, which is a free of charge but feature-limited version. According to Microsoft, Expression Encoder 2 is not a replacement for Windows Media Encoder, despite having many similarities.[3] However, Windows Media Encoder has been replaced more recently by Expression Encoder Standard, which is a stripped-down version of Expression Encoder 3.
