How to organize work with WPF according to MVVM?

Question

WPF

Good afternoon!
I decided to switch from WinForms to WPF (MVVM) - rewrite the working solution from 0, I ran into the following problems:
1. Implement the loading process (receiving / sending data to the server) in the form of a Splash Screen.
2. Closing View from ViewModel i.e. when certain procedures are performed (without user intervention), the window should close.
A big request to tell where to read about it. I haven’t fully figured out MVVM yet (I mostly take information from metanit).
WPF and MVVM - just started learning.

The wpf technology itself is sensibly described, which is very important for solving the issue.
In order to write using the MVVM pattern, you need to understand the mechanics of the interaction of xaml and cs code.
This will be enough for you to undermine a good layer of information and understand how to write in the MVVM pattern
