This skill provides a set of best practices and patterns for creating ViewModels, Wizards, and managing navigation in Avalonia applications, leveraging the power of ReactiveUI and the Zafiro toolkit. 1. Functional-Reactive Approach: Use ReactiveUI (ReactiveObject, WhenAnyValue, etc.) to handle state and logic. 2. Enhanced Commands: Utilize IEnhancedCommand for better command management, including progress reporting and name/text attributes. 3. Wizard Pattern: Implement complex flows using SlimWizard and WizardBuilder for a declarative and maintainable approach. 4. Automatic Section Discovery: Use the [Section] attribute to register and discover UI sections automatically. 5. Clean Composition: map ViewModels to Views using DataTypeViewLocator and manage dependencies in the CompositionRoot. ViewModels & Commands: Creating robust ViewModels and handling commands. Wizards & Flows: Building multi-step wizards with SlimWizard. Navigation & Sections: Managing navigation and section-based UIs. Composition & Mapping: Best practices for View-ViewModel wiring and DI. For real-world implementations, refer to the Angor project: CreateProjectFlowV2.cs: Excellent example of complex Wizard buildin
