Description

Data binding is one of the most important concepts that a developer must master in order to write great UWP apps, especially apps that use the popular Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) architecture. And along with data binding comes commanding and value converters. In this session, you will learn about all of these concepts, discover the roles that they play in UWP apps and how they work together, and see them in action.
