    That's exactly why I recommend not starting with a framework. These frameworks can be very overwelming because of their sheer size and feature-list. If you don't have experience with MVVM you probably won't understand what 99% of these features are for. If you start writing a very simple MVVM implementation yourself you will meet certain problems and you'll learn about different ways to approach them. This way you'll learn so after a while the frameworks won't be black magic anymore - and then you can consider continuing to build your own system or switch to an existing framework.

  • I have the same, I'm not using a framework (at least not that I know), just copied some parts of classes and use it. I have a reasonably sized hobby project (about 20K lines) and window updating gets complicated without MVVM now. Commented Feb 10, 2012 at 15:03
