Greetings

WinFX is a managed (CLR-based) API that extends the .NET Framework. However,
it is accessible via MC++ to unmanaged applications. It encompasses all of
the managed APIs that Microsoft will ship in Longhorn, including Avalon,
Indigo, and WinFS, and .NET Frameworks.

It is broken down in to interface/data/communication layers which are
Avalon/WinFS/Indigo respectively.

WinFX is the heart of Longhorn from which Avalon/WinFS/Indigo will all
follow.
