BeyondWPF 🚀

GitHub Release NuGet NuGet Downloads License

BeyondWPF is a modern WPF UI framework designed to simplify the creation of beautiful and responsive desktop applications. It provides a set of theme-aware controls, a flexible theming system, and a robust MVVM architecture foundation.

Features ✨

  • Modern Styling: A fresh look for standard WPF controls (Button, TextBox, ComboBox, ScrollBar, ListView, etc.).
  • Theming Engine: Built-in ThemeService for easy switching between Light/Dark modes and custom Accent colors.
  • Resources System: A comprehensive set of dynamic brushes (ControlDarkBrush, ControlLightBrush, SystemAccentBrush, etc.) for building consistent UIs.
  • MVVM Ready: Includes core abstractions (IDialogService, INavigationService) and helpers (RelayCommand, ViewModelBase) based on generic host and DI.
  • Modal Dialogs: A built-in modal dialog system that overlays the main window.

Project Structure 📂

  • BeyondWPF.Core: Core interfaces, enums, and base classes.
  • BeyondWPF.Common: Implementations of core services (ThemeService, DialogService).
  • BeyondWPF.Controls: The UI library containing XAML styles and custom controls.
  • BeyondWPF.BaseApplication: A demo application showcasing all available controls and features.
