title: MVVM for Web Development
body: <p>I've been reading up on MVVM and so far have found it very interesting. Most of the examples I've found, however, are for Windows apps, as opposed to Web apps. I've also seen a lot of mention of MVVM used with Silverlight, and I know Silverlight can be used for either Web or Windows apps.</p>
  
  <p>So my question is - is MVVM a valid pattern for Web-based apps? If it is, does the UI have to be Silverlight? I'm in the process of deciding which technologies to use for a new mid-size website we need to design, and Silverlight may be a hard sell to the powers-that-be, though what we use behind the scenes doesn't matter so much. </p>
  
  <p>Any info anyone can supply on using MVVM in a web environment would be appreciated. Example code would be great as well.</p>
