changing WPF views using reactiveui

Could anybody help me out with the best practice for changing views using reactiveUI and WPF.



At the moment I am closing a window and opening a new one, which to me seems like an ugly user experience, and rather hacky.



The concept is a login screen which directs to a new page after a successful login.



I don't know if I should have a main window that has different templates for each window and then bind to those.



As always, thanks for any tips!

          This sounds like a good use-case for navigation. I would create a RoutedViewHost and Navigate from my LoginPageViewModel to my LogginErrorViewModel or LogginSuccesViewModel as appropriate. See the following references:



          https://reactiveui.net/api/reactiveui/routedviewhost/
          https://reactiveui.net/docs/handbook/routing/



          And for a little deeper dive in a specific case:
