It's very annoying when opening a XAML file the first time that it will start in design-mode for preview mode.
Visual Studio will render the XAML code but sometimes if you have a lot of controls in it it can take a long time too load.
But there is a option within Visual Studio to turn this feature off.
- Start Visual Studio
- Click on Tools -> Options
- Navigate to Text Editor -> XAML -> Miscellaneous
- Check the box Always open documents in full XAML view
