Spokane .NET Conference: MVVM in Blazor WASM with the Community Toolkit

Like Blazor but find it hard to test your code-behind? Are you a principled MVVM desktop developer but yearn to write web apps?
The .NET Community Toolkit is a platform-agnostic MVVM (Model/View/ViewModel) framework that makes implementing that pattern a breeze. If you're a web developer looking to adopt the MVVM methodology or a desktop developer looking to build a web app, this talk is for you. Come and learn why Senior Software Developer Kelly Adams loves utilizing it in a ASP.NET Blazor WASM (WebAssembly) application to improve testability, code re-use, and adherence to SOLID principles.

So glad to see that someone has found and shared a simple MMVM solution for Blazor!

[@rasmustchristensen]

Great example of getting started with Blazor and MVVM Toolkit, thanks!

[@Tb69420]

Thank you! Now I can confidently use Blazor!

[@kungfutommy]

This looks great! How would I go about injecting services in through the constructors of the view models?

[@rogersteinbakk]

MVVM toolkit is great. Can this be useful for Blazor server as well, or only for WASM?

[@IntelliTect]

Hi @rogersteinbakk, I reached out to Kelly, the presenter, with your question! This is what he said, "Hmmm, I haven't tried it with Blazor Server, I guess theoretically it would work, but sending all that Observable state back and forth over the internet seems like it would be slow."

[@rogersteinbakk]

@@IntelliTect Thanx for responding! :)

What about navigation from the view model? I found that blazors NavigationManager can only work if injected in to razor component. If injected to any other class it throws an exception. Is there a way to handle navigation by from the view model? For example I want to on button click execute a command that calls some service and then navigates me to another page.

[@abidmehmoods]

Any update on this?

[@alexdobrynin]

what if we have more complex data, for example nested complex objects in which also smth changes. how does mvvmcomponentbase know about it?
