MetroMVVM is a .NET helper library for
Windows 8 Metro style XAML applications. It contains a set
of basic components, helpers and extensions to easily develop apps
based on the Model-View-ViewModel pattern. The goal of this library
is to make Windows 8 XAML apps development faster, using a widely
adopted pattern and a decoupled architecture, so developers won't
have to spend time solving problems that have already been
solved.
The library is based on other
existing MVVM frameworks (MVVM Light Toolkit, MVVM
Foundation) and extends and integrates them with personal and
other developers' contributions (Andrea
Boschin, Tim
Heuer, Nicolas Humann, Slobodan
Pavkov, Joost van Schaik), in order to be proficiently
used to develop rich-featured and complex apps targeted to
Windows 8 Consumer Preview.
I'm currently developing some
Metro-style apps and the helper library is an in-progress
side-by-side project, which I'll update periodically to integrate
features and enhancements as soon as I develop them.
Future posts will cover
MetroMVVM architecture, components, usages and
samples. For now, download it from CodePlex and give it a try.
Please, feel free to send me comments, advices or bug reports!
