Project mention: I want to learn WPF and was told I should use a MVVM based framework any up to date suggestions? | reddit.com/r/csharp | 2023-01-05My favorite framework is Reactive UI but it's a bit more advanced than most MVVM frameworks since it uses Reactive Programming. You can still try its most basic features, though.

They seem to be a bit slow with updating the documentation so I´m a bit nervous about what else might not be updated yet.

Project mention: I want to learn WPF and was told I should use a MVVM based framework any up to date suggestions? | reddit.com/r/csharp | 2023-01-05Yeah, the fact properties use fields with annotations right now isn't ideal, it's just the best we could do until C# gets partial properties. I do plan on adding support for that though as soon as C# gets that feature. You can follow the progress here 🙂
