Course content

1 section • 17 lectures • 54m total length

  • Module 1: Introduction to MVVM4:14

    Explore the model view viewmodel pattern and how model, view, and viewmodel separate concerns, and compare MVVM to MVC and MVP.

  • Module 1: Introduction to MVVM (2)1:33

    Explore the MVVM pattern and learn how data binding enables clean separation of the view and the ViewModel, improving maintainability, testability, and scalability in complex UIs.

  • Module 2: Basics of the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) Pattern4:01

    Explore how model, view, and ViewModel interact to separate concerns across desktop, mobile, and web apps, creating a scalable MVVM workflow through data binding.

  • Module 2: Basics of the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) Pattern (2)1:12

    Explore how the mvvm pattern separates ui logic from data handling using models, view models, and views, with data binding enabling real-time updates in web and desktop apps.

  • Module 3: Developing the Model4:46

    Discover the model’s role in MVVM as data and business logic backbone. Learn encapsulation, UI independence, data validation, separate data access logic, and linking the model to the view model.

  • Module 4: Creating the ViewModel4:03

    Master the view model in MVVM, enabling two-way data binding, data formatting, I command handling, UI logic, and data collections to connect the view with the model.

  • Module 4: Creating the ViewModel (2)2:26

    Create a view model that exposes a task list and commands, such as add task, and bind the view to these properties so the user interface updates when tasks change.

  • Module 5: Working with the View4:54

    Understand MVVM view interactions, data binding types (one-way, two-way, one-time), commands, and dynamic interfaces, with automatic synchronization to the view model.

  • Module 6: Practical Use of MVVM with WPF4:11

    Explore MVVM in WPF by building a to do list app, demonstrating model, view, and viewmodel interaction, binding with observable collections, two-way binding, and commands via ICommand to manage tasks.

  • Module 6: Practical Use of MVVM with WPF (2)2:06

    Bind ui elements to viewmodel properties and expose commands via ICommand in WPF MVVM, enabling a responsive view and maintainable desktop apps.

  • Module 7: Practical Use of MVVM with Xamarin4:07

    Explore how to implement MVVM in Xamarin Forms to build cross-platform mobile apps with a shared codebase, using models, view models, and views, and data binding.

  • Module 7: Practical Use of MVVM with Xamarin (2)1:17

    Apply the mvvm pattern in a Xamarin Forms app by modeling tasks, managing them in the view model, and binding the view to display and interact with the list.

  • Module 8: Testing MVVM Applications4:11

    Test the view model to validate state management, data processing, command execution, and error handling in MVVM. Use unit testing principles, mocks, and automation tools to improve stability and maintainability.

  • Module 8: Testing MVVM Applications (2)1:46

    Master MVVM testing with unit, integration, and UI tests, and use mocking and tools like NUnit and Xamarin UI Test to improve stability and early bug detection.

  • Module 9: Optimizing and Maintaining MVVM Applications4:22

    Refine your MVVM architecture to optimize performance, scalability, and maintainability with clean view models, state management, dependency injection, reactive programming, and design patterns.

  • Module 9: Optimizing and Maintaining MVVM Applications (2)1:14

    Decouple viewmodels to reduce coupling and improve modularity, and apply command and factory patterns to encapsulate interactions, manage state, and optimize performance in mvvm apps.

  • Module 10: Real Projects with MVVM4:33

    Apply MVVM to real-world and enterprise projects by structuring the model layer, the ViewModel layer, and the view layer, and optimize API calls with authentication and data caching.

Requirements

  • No prior experience with MVVM or architectural patterns is required. This course starts from the basics and gradually progresses to advanced concepts, making it suitable for both beginners and experienced developers.

Description

Developing modern applications requires a solid architecture that ensures scalability, maintainability, and testability. The Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern is one of the most effective approaches for structuring applications, allowing developers to create clean, modular, and easily maintainable code.


This course is designed to take you from the fundamentals of MVVM to real-world implementation in WPF and Xamarin applications. You’ll learn how to separate application logic into distinct components, ensuring better organization and long-term maintainability.


We start by exploring the core principles of MVVM, its benefits, and how it compares to other architectural patterns like MVC and MVP. From there, you’ll dive into the Model, learning how to structure business logic and manage data efficiently. The ViewModel module will teach you about data binding, command handling, and state management, enabling smooth interaction between UI and business logic. You’ll also work with the View, understanding how to build dynamic interfaces that react to user input seamlessly.


Beyond implementation, this course covers best practices for testing MVVM applications, optimizing performance, and applying MVVM in real-world enterprise projects. By the end, you’ll have the confidence to build scalable, testable, and high-performance applications.


No prior experience with MVVM is required—this course is beginner-friendly while providing valuable insights for experienced developers looking to refine their skills. Whether you’re building desktop or mobile applications, mastering MVVM will help you create professional, maintainable software with ease.


Who this course is for:

  • • Beginner Developers – If you’re new to application architecture, this course will help you understand MVVM from the ground up. • Intermediate and Experienced Developers – If you already have programming experience but want to improve code maintainability and scalability, this course will refine your skills. • WPF and Xamarin Developers – If you work with these frameworks, you’ll learn how to properly implement MVVM for cleaner and more efficient applications. • Software Engineers Looking for Best Practices – If you want to build enterprise-level applications with a solid architecture, this course will teach you industry standards. • Anyone Interested in Writing Cleaner Code – If you’re struggling with unorganized UI logic, MVVM will help you separate concerns and improve your development workflow. This course is designed to be beginner-friendly, so no prior knowledge of MVVM is required!
