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.

• Chapter 1, The MVVM Design Pattern
• Chapter 2, The .NET MAUI Framework
• Chapter 3, Data Binding Building Blocks in .NET MAUI
• Chapter 4, Data Binding in .NET MAUI
