"from" and "to" attributes for "rotation" consist of angle in degrees followed by
the x and y coordinates of the rotation center.
"begin" attribute states that the rotation should start right away.
"repeatCount" set to "indefinite" means that the rotation should continue for ever.
Knockout bindings bind
the rotation duration ("dur" attribute) to "fullCircleDuration" property of the
individual solar system body View Model.
Also we use animationControl custom binding connected to "runAnimation" property on
the whole solar system View Model to control the animation start and stop -->

I am a software architect and a developer with great passion for new engineering solutions and finding and applying design patterns.
I am passionate about learning new ways of building software and sharing my knowledge with others.
I worked with many various languages including C#, Java and C++.
I fell in love with WPF (and later Silverlight) at first sight. After Microsoft killed Silverlight, I was distraught until I found Avalonia - a great multiplatform package for building UI on Windows, Linux, Mac as well as within browsers (using WASM) and for mobile platforms.
I have my Ph.D. from RPI.
