Expression is largely a design tool. With it, one can create the ui layer of
a multi-tiered application. But, one cannot create class libraries with
Expression, as that is not its purpose. Remember the old adage: When all you
have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. :-)
I use Expression alongside Visual Studio (which has the Web Developer bits
included for design of an ASP.NET ui layer). I would not use it in isolation
for the types of applications I build. But, then, I would not use FrontPage,
Dreamweaver or any other WYSIWYG Internet UI designers to build Enterprise
applications, by themselves. They are one tool in my arsenal.
Hope this helps.
