ViewModel with bindable collections

Let your class derive from PresentationBase.ViewModel. Create an ObservableViewModelCollection<> property and initialize it in your constructor.

public class AwesomeViewModel : ViewModel
{
    public ObservableViewModelCollection<ChildViewModel> Children { get; }
    
    public AwesomeViewModel()
    {
        Children = new ObservableViewModelCollection<ChildViewModel>(this);
        Children.Add(new ChildViewModel { Nickname = "Blinky" });
        Children.Add(new ChildViewModel { Nickname = "Pinky" });
        Children.Add(new ChildViewModel { Nickname = "Inky" });
        Children.Add(new ChildViewModel { Nickname = "Clyde" });
    }
}
