What problem does it solve?

This skill provides best practices, architectural patterns, and library recommendations for building Windows desktop applications using XAML-based frameworks (WinUI 3 and WPF). It emphasizes the MVVM pattern, DI, and modern C# features.

Core Features & Use Cases

• MVVM First: Keep UI logic in the ViewModel, minimizing code-behind and ensuring testability.
• Dependency Injection: Use DI to manage services and ViewModels for scalable architectures.
• Responsive UI & Modern Tooling: Avoid blocking the UI thread and leverage Roslyn source generators to reduce boilerplate.
• Project Structure Guidance: Clear folder organization for scalable Windows apps (Views, ViewModels, Models, Services, Assets).
• Use Case: Start a new WinUI 3 or WPF project with MVVM-ready scaffolding and DI wiring.

Quick Start

Create a new WinUI 3 or WPF project configured for MVVM and DI, then scaffold the initial Views and ViewModels.
