Open-Source WPF Control Library: ModernWpf

The site admin learned about this UI library from Lin Dexi on the CNBlogs. After cloning, compiling, and running it, I found it to be quite good. As Lin Dexi said: "It has a very beautiful interface, all in Windows 10 style, and the UI part is similar to the default UWP. This library supports .NET Framework 4.5 and above, as well as .NET Core 3.0 and above, and can run on Windows Vista SP2 and above." So I copied the readme from that repository, hoping to let more people know about the existence of this library and give WPF developers one more UI library choice.

Quick start

1. Create a WPF application
2. Install the ModernWpfUI package from NuGet.
3. Edit App.xaml:

<Application
    ...
    xmlns:ui="http://schemas.modernwpf.com/2019">
    <Application.Resources>
        <ResourceDictionary>
            <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
                <ui:ThemeResources />
                <ui:XamlControlsResources />
            </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
        </ResourceDictionary>
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>

4. Edit MainWindow.xaml:

<Window
    ...
    xmlns:ui="http://schemas.modernwpf.com/2019"
    ui:WindowHelper.UseModernWindowStyle="True">
    <ui:SimpleStackPanel Margin="12" Spacing="24">
        <TextBlock Text="My first ModernWPF app" Style="{StaticResource HeaderTextBlockStyle}" />
        <Button Content="I am a button" />
        <Button Content="I am an accent button" Style="{StaticResource AccentButtonStyle}" />
    </ui:SimpleStackPanel>
</Window>
