WinUI uses a lot of the same names for its APIs as both of these older technologies—especially Silverlight, but its use is limited to the Windows (specifically Windows 8 and later) as with WPF. The major difference is that WPF and Silverlight are written in <a href="C_Sharp_(programming_language)" title="C Sharp (programming language)">C#</a> and require using <a href=".NET_language" class="mw-redirect" title=".NET language">.NET languages</a> such as <a href="C_Sharp_(programming_language)" title="C Sharp (programming language)">C#</a> or <a href="Visual_Basic_.NET" class="mw-redirect" title="Visual Basic .NET">Visual Basic</a>, while WinRT XAML is part of the Windows Runtime, written in <a href="C%2B%2B" title="C++">C++</a> and available to <a href="Machine_code" title="Machine code">native code</a>, and has tools for development, with <a href="C%2B%2B/CX" title="C++/CX">C++/CX</a> or <a href="C%2B%2B/WinRT" title="C++/WinRT">C++/WinRT</a>.
