How not to codding in only one file with C# WPF?
I’m graduating with a Computer Science degree recently and working as a C# WPF desktop application programmer now. I’m working on my first-ever project from zero on solo, but I am not sure what is the right approach to coding the multi-pages/windows program. In particular, I mean should I apply some pattern(such as MVP, MVVM) or just using some native ways that I ignored to avoid/handle some issues, such as:
- how to passing parameters and provoking commands in a class to another class without passing variables between source and target like this:
Passing parameter from a child(WindowB) to parent(WindowA):
public class WindowA { string msg; public WindowA() => new WindowB(msg); } public class WindowB { public WindowB(string msg) => msg = "Hello"; } - How to switch the page in a window?
I am taking MVVM Pattern approach now with Caliburn Micro and MVVM Light. But MVVM and most of the frameworks have a steep learning curve on the knowledge itself but also the vague/incomplete documents and tutorials. Is it an overkill option for a small project with only a few pages and not suitable for newbies? If yes, What is the right approach?
