.net - C# tutorial to write gadgets

Question

How can I write gadgets for the Windows 7 desktop using C# and Visual Studio 2008? I'm looking for tutorials and resources on that topic.

Answer 1

Try Authoring Sidebar Gadgets in C#.

C# is not the only option. This detailed tutorial explains how to develop gadgets without C#. (Orginally gadgets were authored in a mix of XML, HTML, CSS, and some IE scripting language.)
