Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) is an architecture pattern that has been around for more than a decade, but it remains a popular choice for developers in 2023. MVVM is a software design pattern that separates the user interface (UI) code from the business logic and data access layers, making it easier to develop and maintain complex applications. In this blog post, we'll explore why MVVM is still a popular architecture pattern in 2023 and the benefits it offers to developers. Separation of Concerns One of the primary benefits of MVVM is that it separates the UI code from the business logic and data access layers. This separation of concerns makes it easier to develop and maintain complex applications. Developers can focus on the functionality of each layer independently, which results in code that is easier to read, test, and maintain. Testability MVVM makes it easier to test the application. Since the UI code is separated from the business logic, developers can test the functionality
