UWP Async MVVM Sample

This sample demonstrates how to use common Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) patterns in UWP asynchronously.

It is a complete working sample derived from the following series of articles by Stephen Cleary, originally published on MSDN Magazine for WPF:

• Async Programming : Patterns for Asynchronous MVVM Applications: Data Binding
• Async Programming : Patterns for Asynchronous MVVM Applications: Commands

They have been rewritten for UWP and provided here as a reference.

Requirements

Requires VS 2017 and Windows 10 version 15063 or above.
