Model View ViewModel (MVVM) is a UI design pattern targeted at development platforms like WPF and Silverlight, emphasizing designer responsibility for the view. It allows for simultaneous design and development, enhances unit testing, promotes reusable components, and offers flexibility in UI changes. A video by Nitin S. Shinde from Marlabs discusses the basics and advantages of using MVVM.

2. About Model View ViewModel (MVVM)
Model View View Model or MVVM is a User Interface (UI) design
pattern targeted at UI development platforms such as Windows
Presentation Foundation (WPF) and Silverlight where the designer
is responsible for the View rather than the developer. A variation
of the Model View Controller (MVC) and Model View Presenter
(MVP) patterns, it originated for Microsoft as an improvisation of
Martin Fowler’s Presentation Model design pattern. Among its
many benefits, MVVM allows design and development work to
happen almost simultaneously and also allows for unit testing of
solutions. Furthermore, it allows reusable components and grants
additional flexibility to change UIs without having to re-factor
other logic in the code base.
In the following video, Nitin S Shinde from Marlabs walks you
through the basics of MVVM and explains why you need to use
MVVM.
