I'm writing an application in WPF and found myself loving whole MVVM paradigm. My only concern at the moment is that my ViewModels are becoming heavy. They contain
Commands
DispatchTimer
Keep in mind that the ViewModel
is just an adapter between your model
, where logic and data live, and the view
which is shown to the user.
The idea is you can easily swap views or change them, without the logic suffering from that.
Having said that, depending on the complexity of your application, they might grow quite big, but if it's mainly stuff that ends up enabling/disabling stuff on your view, and isn't doing logic / processing stuff, I'd say this is where it's supposed to live.
