MVVM deep dive

For the next few weeks i'll be doing a "deep dive" into MVVM. Below is an excerpt from a deep dive kickoff e-mail i got from my boss. In coming posts i'll publish summaries/notes of these resources.

Model - View - ViewModel (MVVM)

We're moving forward with a deep dive into the MVVM design pattern for Silverlight. . .for those interested, here are some great resources (in no particular order);

"It was once commonly said that all roads lead to Rome.

Today, all WPF and Silverlight best practices lead to the

Model-View-ViewModel design pattern."
