DoctorFlox is a lightweight MVVM library for .NET. It is taking a lot of code and ideas from MVVM Light Toolkit by Laurant Bugnion because the latter is not maintained anymore. We also took ideas and code from Prism because they told us that WPF is not in their focus anymore (see this Issue).
We polished the source code and got rid of the Silverlight and DotnetFx components. We developed the logic targetting .NET Standard 2.0 which means, that we currently support the following targets in principle:
- .NET Frameworkwork 4.6.1+
- .NET Core 2.0+
- Mono 5.4+
- Xamarin.iOS 10.14+
- UWP 10.0.16299+
DoctorFlox needs references to certain libs which currently means that the project is targetting WPF-projects only!
We are a bunch of Geeks and so Star Trek is kind of a natural source for project names to us. This beeing said we decided to use Dr. Phlox as our inspiration. He is always patient and looks to ordinary humans just like we do some times :-). Anyway! In order to not conflict with some weird search engine issues (you know what we mean) we decided to use a F instead of the Ph. In fact it doesn't matter in our opinion because package names like SlowCheetah worked out very well.
DoctorFlox is available on NuGet. Using NuGet tools just type
install-package devdeer.DoctorFlox -IncludePrerelease
