Use Toastr messages from codebehind

As I prefer to solve things only once I wanted this to be reusable through my app.

var msg= new Message(Level.Error,"This is the text", "This is the title"));
viewmodel.Messages.Add(msg);

I can now add multiple messages with different levels, all from codebehind:
