WPF application

To demonstrate a new WPF component for my work, I followed a tutorial available on YouTube.

SingletonSean - Models - WPF MVVM TUTORIAL #1

• I highly recommend this tutorial, as it thoroughly establishes a credible model before progressing to the associated views.
• The View design serves as an excellent introduction to XAML, covering grid layouts, padding, margins, shared sizes, and (keyed) styles.
• The creation of the ViewModels shows bindings, UpdateSourceTrigger.
• Creation of Commands, that are objects parts of the ViewModel layer and an abstraction of buttons for examples, that can be grayed or not depending of the context.
  • Models are injected in the Command button in order to interact with it.
• Navigation, and an introduction to Stores, objects that maintains the state of the application.
  • Stores are declared at the App level.
  • Stores are injected in the ViewModels and in Navigation Commands.
  • Changes in stores need to be relayed to the ViewModel that can trigger the OnPropertyChanged method (PropertyChangedEventHandler event part of INotifyPropertyChanged)

I used Mermaid to build this diagram.
