Unfortunately there are no good books about the use of WPF and MVVM in Windows applications, and only a few good articles about it.<\/p>\n
So I have decided to make here a list of web ressources that helped me to understand how WPF and MVVM works.<\/p>\n
A good basic article is this one here, by Shamlia from Microsoft:<\/p>\n
Understanding the basics of MVVM design pattern<\/a><\/p>\n Another recommendend reading is the introduction to MVVM by Paul Grenyer:<\/p>\n An Introduction to the WPF with the MVVM – Part 1 <\/a><\/p>\n or maybe the link to the entire PDF document:<\/p>\n An Introduction to the WPF with the MVVM – PDF<\/a><\/p>\n Another recommended reading is the excellent EBook by Josh Smith – Advanced MVVM (available on Amazon and Lulu, and AFAIK also as paperback). It is worth the few money it costs:<\/p>\n Josh Smith – Advanced MVVM<\/a><\/p>\n And as last: Josh Smith wrote also a series of introductory articles to WPF on CodeProject:<\/p>\n Josh Smith: A guided tour to WPF<\/a><\/p>\n Other than, please look at Josh Smiths MVVM Foundation project – it is a very essential sample for a MVVM framework containing only a few basic classes:<\/p>\n Josh Smith: MVVM Foundation project<\/a><\/p>\n On StackOverflow, someone recommended me the following article by Jeremy Likness:<\/p>\n Jeremy Likness: Model-View-ViewModel MVVM Explained<\/a><\/p>\n Another guy writing a few articles about the structure of MVVM applications is Rico Suter, start with this one:<\/p>\n
