which is the best or widely used MVVM Toolkit for

Question

Could you tell me which is the best MVVM pattern someone have to follow (like Prism). Where can I find hands-on examples to help? Actually, I am little confused which one to follow?

Answer 1

A great list of MVVM frameworks can be found at MVVM Framework Explorer.

Answer 2

I don't know what you are exactly mean. MVVM itself is a design pattern. if you mean what are MVVM's best implementations and libraries then some of them are as follow:

• WPF MVVM Toolkit: here
• Prism
• Cinch: here
• MVVM Foundation: here
• MVVM Light: here

also here you can find a great article about MVVM. I hope these will help you.

Answer 3

The Wikepedia article about MVVM has a list of frameworks. Here is a selection of some of the frameworks from the list:

• Calcium
• Caliburn
• Cinch
• CoreMVVM
• MVVM Foundation
• MVVM Light Toolkit
• WPF Application Framework (WAF)
• WPF Model-View-ViewModel Toolkit

Personally, I can recommend Rob Eisenberg's Caliburn. You can see his very educating introduction to MVVM at MIX 2010: Build Your Own MVVM Framework.
