What is a Presentation Layer Pattern/Presentation Pattern? As far as I know MVVM is an Architectural Pattern, but I see many people, articles, blogs referring it as a Presentation Pattern. And I got confused.
It seems a bit contradictory. If it's an Architectural pattern then it's supposed to deal with all my Presentation Layer, Business Logic Layer and Data Access Layer, right? And I'm allowed to use my Entity Framework generated data-model as the Model. But if it's a Presentation pattern, which I'm guessing is supposed to deal with Presentation only, then I shouldn't be using the the EF generated data-model as the Model since that'll be accessing my Data Access Layer from Presentation Layer.
Can anyone shed some light?
