MVVM Toolkit for WPF
NOTE: This was cross posted from here.
The Model View ViewModel pattern has become very popular for building WPF applications. Until now, there wasn’t much guidance/tooling from Microsoft to help you get started with MVVM. The WPF team just released an early preview of the MVVM Toolkit:
“The Model-View-ViewModel toolkit is intended to introduce the Model-View-ViewModel design pattern for building WPF applications to the broad WPF developer community.
The toolkit includes:
- A Visual Studio 2008 template (Visual C# Express 2008 also supported)
- Documentation
- General introduction to M-V-VM
- Walkthrough using the VS template
- A complete WPF application demonstrating the M-V-VM pattern
You can download the toolkit on the WPF Futures page .”
I just installed it, went through the documentation/walkthrough. I’d definitely recommend taking a look at this!
I hope there is something like this in the works for Silverlight:).
