Hello Everyone!
Wanted to give an update on a framework I am working on called Razre. This framework utilizes some pieces of Prism2 and provides a few more functional framework pieces. Currently the features I have working are Primary Navigation with customizable transition animation, An implementation of the MVVM UI design pattern that utilizes DataTemplates to resolve a View to a ViewModel and a full DataTemplate to ViewModel Themeing mechanism.
The different pieces are tied into each other to provide a rich and performant base system from which to develop upon. The NavigationManager allows to define primary screen navigation by navigating to custom visuals or directly to an instance of a ViewModel. The MVVM system utilizes a ViewModelFactory to create and resolve the appropriate View through a DataTemplate without relying on a DynamicResource. The themeing mechanism understands how to notify a ViewModel when its theme has changed so that the ViewModel can find a new DataTemplate pointing to a completely different View giving us full visual theming support.
I have the project up on CodePlex at http://razre.codeplex.com/ but i have not published the project yet. My sample application needs alot of work and i still need to do more exection handling and commenting increasing the robustness of the framework.
Look to see it coming soon!
