I think the WPF model concept is where I was initially coming from, as that still seems a good idea for a Blazor wasm app. Even if the V/VM part is a little different. The webapi (or a service behind that) can do the translation between what I want to show and EF or any other database interaction.

Right. It can be a bit tedious. I've been working on a project for a few months, an existing application. The new enhancements/features required that we split some existing tables out (moving a field from one table to a new table). When setting up the deployment, I had to alter the generated diff scripts quite a bit. djj55: Nice but may have a permission problem Pete O'Hanlon: He has my permission to run it.

Found that by commenting out chunks of my Angular app definition, the test then works. Not sure why, what I assume is an issue with the Angular code, is effecting the operation of the test?

Very sure. It was the result of some extremely embarrassing code.

You should post your question in the forum at the end of the article, so Josh can help you.

Ok found this article showing how to do the style once, then use "based on" to apply it to other controls.

Resolved it, adding design time data helped...though weirdly with it working the design time data now looks wrong. I'm not 100% this is fully correct, or the best or simplest way of doing this...but it does seem to work so far. I've got a few CollectionViewSources, but the first and last are the only two relevant to this. I needed the CollectionViewSource unitNameViewSource, so that I could set the ItemsSource on the ComboBox to something. If I didn't set it, or set it to {Binding} I got false values on the first record. The ComboBoxs are defined as: The other thing I think was important was to bind to BusinessArea and not the BusinessAreaId column. Let EF faff with translating that! My code behind is then: private void Page\_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {

I see. Maybe looking into clustering with embedded databases??? Not sure that is even feasible given that generally embedded would be one client but there might be one or two out there that supports that.

I couldn't disagree more! My experience is that often people who use a framework spend a great deal of their time trying to find out how to work around ways the framework's limitations in order to do something that would be relatively simple. Of course, documentation and training is the key - if you and the team are allowed the time to learn a framework properly before using it in a real development, then all can be good, but that learning / experimenting time can equally well be spent learning the basics from the ground up and developing the features your project actually needs. Another issue with frameworks can be the need to modify the framework in some way in order to do what is required - and then suffering because one cannot update to the latest version of the framework without some angst. MVVM isn't really that hard - it's far simpler than many of the frameworks out there. And developing your own allows you to pick and choose features from other frameworks at will.

I have a separate project in my solution that contains such code i.e. code that is shared across other parts of the application. This can then be distributed as a self contained assembly. If using .NET then you have the option of placing this assembly in the GAC where other applications can also use the same functionality.

How do you mean? The ViewModel already had that, and that on its own didn't work. No items were added until the end. private ObservableCollection \_results = new ObservableCollection(); public ObservableCollection Results { get { return \_results; } set { \_results = value; RaisePropertyChanged("Results"); } } Or do you mean create a class that derives from ObservableCollection and implement it there?

Starting with the code generate by svcUtil is generally ok. However, if you are consuming axis web services, more often than not, issues can arise that need some form of customization in the channel, message encoding etc. Consuming a WCF service should be more straightforward and easier, WP Apps - Color Search | Arctic | XKCD | Sound Meter | Speed Dial
