I just tried to install the VS2008 SilverlightTools Alpha, but I immediately ran into an error. The installation couldn’t start because VS2008 was not installed. This surprised me because I just installed thirty minutes before. After some searching I found out that I needed to install the Visual Web Developer.
You can install this by running the VS2008 setup again and choose to add features. Now the Silverlight tools setup runs flawless.
