+Model - View - ViewModel
+==============================

+# Follow Along<br />[bit.ly/sdjs-mvvm]()
+---
+
+## Software Design Patterns
+
+- Software design patterns provide a template or methodology for solving common development issues.
+- In our case we will use them to separate our code from our UI.
+- MVC, MVP, MVVM are the most commonly used patterns.
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVC
+
+- Stands for: Model - View - Controller.
+- The oldest of the design patterns. MVP and MVVM are attempts to improve upon this pattern.
+- Model &mdash; The domain specific data (e.g. User email, name, etc.). 
+- - __Note:__ In all of the patterns the way a Model is used does not change.
+- View &mdash; The UI, what the user interacts with.
+- Controller &mdash; Takes the user input, manipulates the model and loads the view.
+- Used in: Ruby on Rails, CodeIgniter and BackboneJS.
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVC
+
+<img src="img/workshop/3/mvc-pattern.jpg" alt="MVC Pattern" />
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVP
+
+- Stands for: Model - View - Presenter.
+- An improvement upon MVC.
+- Created to facilitate the automation of unit testing.
+- The presenter takes the place of the controller.
+- Retrieves data for the View, converts it if needed, and sending to the View.
+- Also gets data from the Model and updates the View.
+- Allows for 2-way communication between Presenter and View.
+- 1 Presenter per View.
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVP
+
+<img src="img/workshop/3/mvp-pattern.jpg" alt="MVP Pattern" />
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVVM
+
+- Stands for: Model - View - ViewModel.
+- Newest pattern created by Microsoft for use with Silverlight and WPF.
+- Allows for 2-way communication.
+- ViewModels bind themselves to Views.
+- ViewModels synchronize the View and Model by listen to updates in both directions.
+- Converts data if needed.
+- 1 ViewModel per View. 
+
+---
+## Software Design Patterns
+#### MVVM
+
+<img src="img/workshop/3/mvvm-pattern.jpg" alt="MVVM Pattern" />
+
+---
+# How MVVM is used in JavaScript
+
+---
+## MVVM
+
+- Several JavaScript Libraries (KnockoutJS, Kendo MVVM, KnockBackJS) make use of this pattern.
+- This pattern is well suited for web applications that perform several tasks without the page being reloaded.
+- Data-binding is used to monitor changes to the View and perform updates accordingly.
+- UI Designers can create the Views and plugin the data-binding without affecting the ViewModel and Model layers.
+- Unit tests can easily be done with ViewModels.
+- Data can be mocked-up to allow for concurrent development of UI and Code.
+
+---
+## MVVM
+#### Models
+
+- Contains domain specific data.
+- Usually just passes data from the Server but can also have validation functions (i.e. test if email address is valid.).
+
+	code src="mvvm/mvvm-model-basic.js"
+	
+---
+## MVVM
+#### Models
+
+- Holds domain specific data.
+- Receives data from ViewModel and updates server.
+- Makes new requests for data (via Ajax) and pushes information to ViewModel.
+- Models do not communicate with the View directly.
+- Doesn't transform any data that is the job of the ViewModel.
+
+---
+## MVVM
+#### ViewModels
+
+- The "Man-in-the-middle".
+- Manages the 2-way data-binding.
+
+	code src="mvvm/mvvm-viewmodel-basic.js"
+
+---
+## MVVM
+#### ViewModels
+
+- Updates/Gets information from the View and ViewModel pass passes it along.
+- Responsible for keeping everything in sync.
+- 1 ViewModel per View.
+
+---
+## MVVM
+#### Views
+
+- A View is just the document that the user interacts with. In our case the HTML document.
+
+	code src="mvvm/view-no-binding.txt"
+	
+- Adding data-bindings to elements allows the ViewModel to update it.
+
+	code src="mvvm/view-with-binding.txt" highlight="data-bind"
+	
+---
+## MVVM
+#### Views
+
+- Views can even perform logical functions inside the binding.
+
+	code src="mvvm/views-logic.txt" linewrapping="true"
+	
+---
+## MVVM
+#### Views
+
+- UI Designers can set data-bindings that ViewModels will attach to.
+- With frameworks like KnockoutJS you can add functions inside the View.
+
+---
+## Final Thoughts
+
+- Advantages:
+	
+	- Allows for parallel development of UI and Backend code that powers it.
+	- UI Designers can easily mockup datasets for development.
+	- Easier to perform Unit or TDD tests on ViewModels than on event driven functions.
+	
+- Disadvantages:
+
+	- For smaller projects this might be overkill.
+	- Data-bindings can take more work to keep track of as the project grows.
+	- In large application planning ViewModels can be a little more difficult to implement.
