When your WPF application is compiled into the build, XAMLs are converted to the BAML form of XAML. The BAML is abbreviation for Binary Application Markup File, a compiled XAML file.These BAML forms are stored in YourApplicationName.g.resources file. The resource file is built-in inside your compiled exe or dll. Every WPF .NET production-quality application uses resources. A resource is any nonexecutable data that is logically deployed with an application.Why do we need to obfuscate XAML (baml) in WPF applications? There are special software tools that load assemblies containing BAML resources (e.g. localized resource assemblies) and show the corresponding XAML. Anybody can see your XAMLs embedded in your .NET assembly.
