Quince, a design pattern explorer built in Silverlight

Infragistics recently launched Quince, a design pattern explorer built in Silverlight.

Design patterns are nothing new, The Welie Library, Jenifer Tidwell’s Designing Interfaces, UI-Patterns.com and The YUI (Yahoo! UI) Library among others have been around for some time.

What is unique about Quince is the social aspect, which allows users to comment and give examples of use cases for patterns. Aside from UI-Patterns.com it’s one of the few that affords for this.
