Avalonia Layout with Zafiro.Avalonia

Master modern, clean, and maintainable Avalonia UI layouts. Focus on semantic containers, shared styles, and minimal XAML.

✅ Checklist for Clean Layouts

  • Used semantic containers? (e.g., HeaderedContainer instead of Border with manual header)
  • Avoided redundant properties? Use shared styles in axaml files.
  • Minimized nesting? Flatten layouts using or generic components.
EdgePanel
  • Icons via extension? Use {Icon fa-name} and IconOptions for styling.
  • Behaviors over code-behind? Use Interaction.Behaviors for UI-logic.
  • Avoided Converters? Prefer ViewModel properties or Behaviors unless necessary.

    • ❌ Anti-Patterns

    DON'T:

    • Use hardcoded colors or sizes (literals) in views.
    • Create deep nesting of Grid and StackPanel.
    • Repeat visual properties across multiple elements (use Styles).
    • Use IValueConverter for simple logic that belongs in the ViewModel.

    DO:

    • Use DynamicResource for colors and brushes.
    • Extract repeated layouts into generic components.
    • Leverage Zafiro.Avalonia specific panels like EdgePanel for common UI patterns.
