Minimising Platform-specific code with MVVM

Justin Spahr Summers from GitHub’s Mac team recently gave a talk at Xamarin’s “Evolve 2013” conference:

GitHub Halp App: Minimizing Platform-specific code with MVVM

Justin is a Mac Developer at GitHub and has contributed to several open source projects released by GitHub, including ReactiveCocoa, an Objective-C port of Microsoft’s Reactive Extensions for .NET. Justin is also a big proponent of using MVVM, and will use GitHub’s internal helpdesk app, Halp, to illustrate how to maximize code re-use.

I’m always interested in different approaches to simplifying my life as a developer, and the GitHub team keep bringing new & interesting ideas to the community.

I’m keen to try MVVM in my next project.
