Conventions

Our first aim is to remove friction, it is not always easy and cannot be done every single time, but one thing that can give a lot of benefits in this area is to move from a configuration based toolkit to a convention based toolkit, we suppose that this concept is widely accepted and is nothing new.

What happens when these lines of code are executed:

public partial class App : Application
{
    public App()
    {
        this.AddRadicalApplication<MainView>();
    }
}

A lot of things:

  1. The application Startup event is wired;

  2. When the Startup event is fired:

    1. Assemblies are scanned looking for all types

    2. ServiceCollection is configured using the bootstrap conventions;

    3. The Inversion of Control container is created;

    4. The main window (the one identified by the TShellView generic parameter) is resolved and shown;
