The MVVM Pattern in .NET MAUI

Part 1: Key Concepts and Components

In this part, we start by discussing the Model-View-ViewModel design pattern without tying it to a specific platform. Next, we'll introduce the .NET MAUI framework and highlight why it works so well with MVVM. As we move forward, you'll learn about the benefits of community toolkits and get hands-on experience with collections. This foundation sets you up for more advanced topics later on.

This part has the following chapters:

Description

In today's fast-paced world of modern software development, teams need to be efficient, productive, and capable of rapidly adapting to changes to deliver high-quality products, making it crucial for developers to write maintainable and easy-to-test code. The MVVM Pattern in .NET MAUI helps you to thoroughly explore the Model-View-View Model (MVVM) design pattern. The chapters show you how this pattern helps in structuring code to embrace the separation of concerns, allowing for loosely coupled user interface and application logic, which ultimately empowers you to write more robust, maintainable, and testable code. The book also highlights .NET MAUI's capabilities and features, and enables you to delve into the essential components within the framework that facilitate the application of the MVVM pattern. With the help of a sample application, this definitive guide takes a hands-on approach to walk you through both the essential and advanced usages of the MVVM pattern to ensure that you successfully apply the practical aspects of the pattern to your .NET MAUI projects. By the end of this book, you’ll have gained a comprehensive understanding of the MVVM design pattern and its relevance in the context of .NET MAUI, as well as developed the skills needed to successfully apply it in practice.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers with experience in C# and basic knowledge of .NET MAUI or Xamarin.Forms who are looking to create cross-platform applications with .NET MAUI and leverage the MVVM pattern.

Ich habe das Buch zur Probe bekommen und bin selber seit fast 3 Jahren aktiv Xamarin/MAUI am entwickeln. Dieses Buch hätte mir damals viel Zeit gesparrt. Es bietet einen sehr guten Einstieg in die wichtigsten Grundsätze von Maui, das MVVM-Pattern. Bei jeder Applikation mit mehr als 3 Pages eine absolute Notwendigkeit.Das Buch erklärt Themen wie Observable Properties, ViewModels, Bindings usw. Es zeigt dabei sehr gut den Theoretischen Ansatz von Microsoft und darauffolgend Hilfestellungen wie z.B. die durchaus sinnvolle Nutzung des Community Toolkits.Der Autor hält dabei stets eine gute Balance die Theorie asuführlich zu erkären und geht auf viele Möglichkeiten von Klassen ein. Gleichzeitig erfährt man aber nicht mehr, als nötig. Dabei nutzt der Autor die Quellen bzw. Dokumentation von Microsoft auf ein sehr gutes Maß.Für jeden Anfänger zu empfehlen, der plant, sein Level an Professionalität in .NET Maui zu steigern. Ich freue mich dass die Community durch dieses Buch weiter gefördert wird.

The book is laid out in an easy to read fashion. It covers a wide range of topics - and in particular, it covers essential practices that are critical to development in .NET Maui.Njis begins with a thorough explanation of MVVM design principles, emphasizing the importance of separation of concerns for creating maintainable and testable code. He then explores .NET Maui capabilities and the components that enable the MVVM pattern.What separates this book apart is its practical approach. Great hands-on examples to work through to better understand the application of data binding, navigation and writing testable code.This book is for developers with experience in C# and a basic understanding of either Xamarin Forms or MAUI.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.
