    Same question as the one archived here:

    I'm familiar with using value converters to present a bound parameter value nicely in the UI but can't see how one could be used with the XAML DatePicker control to prevent it showing a date by default.

    You can use a value converter to map a nullable on the back-end to a default date in the UI. The DatePicker will always show a date, defaulting to Now if the Date property isn't set.
