What is Dependency Injection in WPF?
Updated May 6, 2026
Short answer
Dependency Injection (DI) is a design pattern used to provide dependencies to classes rather than creating them internally.
Deep explanation
In WPF, DI improves testability and modularity by decoupling ViewModels from services. Frameworks like Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection or Autofac are commonly used. It enables constructor injection for services like API clients, logging, or repositories.
