Christopher and I will be presenting at the MSDN Developer Conference Thursday in Orlando. We'll be showing some of our work during the keynote as well as giving a presentation on the WPF Toolkit. If you are going to be there, come by and say hi.

The Caliburn.Testability assembly contains various classes related to unit testing a UI. You can use the BindingValidator to validate data bindings on DependencyObjects, DataTemplates and Styles. The easiest way to access this functionality is through the static Validator class.  It has several...

Caliburn has a new home on CodePlex .  You can find it at http://www.codeplex.com/caliburn .  Additionally, I have added a full set of documentation that is available online .  The documentation loosely follows the samples I have created for the framework which can be found in the 'samples'...

Some of you may be wondering about the status of Caliburn.  I'm presently working on the new version and am having great success making it compatible with both WPF and Silverlight.  It hasn't been easy, but it is going to work.  There's a lot of under-the-hood improvements...

First I'd like to say that I'm stoked about the work the Prism team has been doing.  I have to admit that when they started out in January to deliver a set of guidance for building composite WPF applications, I was skeptical.   But they have come a great distance and I am truly...

Hadi has just posted part 2 of his tutorial on building composite applications with Caliburn. In this post he covers basic usage of the EventBroker, ActionMessages and shows one way of putting the pieces together by using the PresenterHost control. Great job!

The WPF book Christopher and I wrote earlier this year is finally off to the printers! It's 480 pages of full color goodness. We were pretty excited to have the opportunity to talk about things like SoC/SRP, DI, MVP, etc within the context of building some real applications. Below is the table of...

Hadi Eskandari has begun blogging about Caliburn.  He's putting together a multi-part series detailing the steps necessary to get started building your first application.  Thanks for this great contribution Hadi!  You can read the first post in his series here .
