Silverlight MVVM vs Prism

Question

I'm a Silverlight newbie. I'm starting a new project and I would like to use existing patterns such as MVVM and PRISM.

Could anyone please guide me through which pattern is better for what type of scenario. And which one is mainly used in Silverlight, please

Answer 1

MVVM is a pattern, PRISM is a framework that can be used to implement MVVM. To get started with Silverlight and MVVM I'd recommend looking at MVVM Light.
