This project is a Simple Trading Demo Application built with WPF, MVVM architecture, and .NET. It features CRUD operations, live data visualization, and portfolio management using various technologies and patterns such as Entity Framework, Repository Pattern, Dependency Injection, and more. The application allows users to search for assets, buy and sell stocks, view portfolios, and manage accounts with login and registration functionalities.
!!! Warning: in the appsettings.json file, you need to enter your own api key for "FINANCE_API_KEY in order to use the API service !!!
- CRUD Operations: Full support for Create, Read, Update, Delete operations for managing user portfolios and stock transactions.
- Entity Framework: Used for database interaction and management of data models.
- Repository Pattern: Clean separation between business logic and data access with the repository pattern.
- Live Data Visualization: Integrated LiveCharts library to visualize stock data and portfolio performance through dynamic charts.
- Stock Trading: Search assets, buy and sell stocks, and maintain a portfolio of owned assets.
- Dependency Injection: Used throughout the WPF application via HostBuilder, ensuring clean architecture and testability.
- API Integration: Uses HttpClient to interact with third-party APIs for retrieving stock prices and other relevant data.
- Domain Layer: Separated domain layer with business logic and core services. This layer is fully unit-tested for reliability.
- Asynchronous Commands: Support for both synchronous and asynchronous commands to improve responsiveness and performance.
- State Management: Utilizes custom state classes for managing:
- Account State: Handles user login, registration, and authentication.
- Asset State: Manages the current portfolio and asset ownership.
- Navigation State: Controls navigation within the application using ViewModels.
- Custom UI Controls: Implements reusable WPF UI controls to enhance the user experience.
- Workflow for Release: The project includes a GitHub Actions workflow that automates the build and publishing of a new release when a push with a tag command is executed.
