This post is a follow-up on my previous post concerning the Model-View-ViewModel Pattern in Silverlight. Laurent Bugnion (@LBugnion) talks about his MVVM Light Toolkit and explains the Pattern in his session at MIX10.
If you want to start implementing the Pattern check out the the MVVM Light Framework on CodePlex or read the tutorials on GalaSoft. The Framework is easy to use and lightweight. It also adds support for Commands in Silverlight, which is not supported in Silverlight 3 and it contains a lightweight Messaging Framework to communicate between different ViewModels and/or Views.
Next week I’m going to the Microsoft TechDays 2010, so if you’re planning to go make sure you check out his Laurent’s session. See you there.
