DevExpress MVVM Library for .NET MAUI
The DevExpress MAUI MVVM Library helps you to implement the MVVM pattern in a MAUI application. The library is based on .NET Community Toolkit.
Review our demo app on GitHub to try out the DevExpress MAUI MVVM Library:
MVVM Pattern
The Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) architectural design pattern divides your application into three layers:
- Model
- Data and business logic.
- View
- Markup and code-behind that define UI layout and bind individual elements to ViewModel properties and commands.
- ViewModel
- Logic that connects the View and Model.
The diagram below illustrates these layers and their relations.
Refer to the following article for more information on MVVM and its benefits: The MVVM Pattern.
The DevExpress .NET MAUI Controls support the MVVM design pattern. You can use DevExpress MAUI MVVM Library and DevExpress .NET MAUI Controls independently.
