Does Catel work well with a WPF Navigation application

Question

I am working on a large WPF application where the entire UI is based around Pages rather than Windows.

The application is 50% MVVM / 50% MVCB (Model View Code Behind)

So, I am planning to migrate it all to MVVM and I am evaluating Catel as a framework. The current hand-built framework that controls the MVVM isn't bad but doesn't add much productivity value. Given the large amount of work involved in converting > 100 screens I want to save a lot of repetitive work and make it nice and consistent, hence I am evaluating frameworks.

I think it will take me a while to understand Catel, so I am wondering if the fact the application uses Pages is a showstopper?

Answer 1

Catel does support page navigation (same for Silverlight, Windows Phone and WinRT). Note though that is a rarely used feature inside Catel (and WPF at all).

You can use the INavigationService instead of the IUIVisualizerService to navigate between your pages.
