Dependency injection with Autofac and MVVM Light in Xamarin
You gotta have MVVM A developer and his tools are inseparable. We all like SOLID and every (.NET) developer has his or her favourite dependency injection tool. There is a lot to choose from. I like Autofac because of the way it handles modules, the lifetime of a type and how it registers types.
Queue for MessageDialog in Windows RT
When I write Windows Store applications, I use MessageDialog a lot. It’s the easiest way to show a quick informative pop-up message or a question to the user. However, when you tend to use this quite often, you’ll probably run into a problem. The Windows Runtime framework doesn’t allow you to stack MessageDialogs, queue them etc.
