This is a application to contrast how ReactiveUI works against another MVVM framework.

The master branch is the application, built with just MvvmLight. It's kinda hacky, because I was in rush. There's a bunch of dummy data inside the app, so it'll work offline.

The reactive-ui branch is the same application refactored to use ReactiveUI. There's many concepts in ReactiveUI which may be unfamiliar to developers, so rather than rewrite it I've been refactoring it gradually to show how to evolve an existing application to fit this pattern.

Also uses a nice loading animation borrowed from the SpinKit.XAML project - thanks Nigel!
