Developing a Robust Data Driven UI Using WPF - Summary(developerzen.com)

submitted by ekampf(3195) 3 years, 1 month ago

I wrote the stocky application more than a year ago as a research project aimed at proving that using WPF we can separate presentation metadata (XAML) from program logic. The goal was to provide the Duet team at SAP with a document reference sample for using M-V-VM to achieve this separation.

Are You Designing for Bigfoot?(ekampf.com)

submitted by ekampf(3195) 3 years, 9 months ago

Change your team's terminology and work in terms of personas and goals. Rather than thinking of users as an abstract, difficult-to-describe, amorphous group of people, personas instruct us to talk about specific users who have names, personalities, needs, and goals. Understanding exactly who the users are and what they do with the software is essential to determine if a certain feature is actually required. read more...

Developing a Robust Data Driven UI Using WPF - The DataModel(ekampf.com)

submitted by ekampf(3195) 4 years, 2 months ago

In the first post in the series I gave an overview of the pattern we'll be using. This post will go deeper into the DataModel, as defined in the previous post: The DataModel is defined exactly as the Model in MVC; it is the data or business logic that stores the state and does processing of the problem domain. The DataModel abstracts expensive operations such as data fetching without blocking the UI thread. It can keep data "alive" fetching it periodically from source (example: stock ticket), merge information from several sources etc. The DataModel is completely UI independent and pretty much straightforward to unit test. The DataModel exposes data in a way that makes it easily consumable by IBF. read more...
