The Uses and Abuses of UI Design Patterns: MVC, MVP, MVVM
Synopsis:
Given the hype around UI Design Patterns combined with the scarcity of real-world examples, it can be hard to evaluate whether you need them and how best to use them. This presentation will attempt to clear up the differences between the various patterns and help you decide when and which patterns are appropriate for the application you are building, whether it is a WinForm application, a web app, a WPF app or a Silverlight app.
