ModernControls.WPF

Russkyc.ModernControls.WPF is an easy to use and highly customizable modern control library for wpf

What sets this apart from the default WPF controls?

The default wpf control library is awesome when it comes to ui customization, but theres only one problem --you need to write a handful of style setters, dependency properties, and triggers to have a truly customized control. Which is why Russkyc.ModernControls.WPF is created. It saves you from having to write all of the style, templates, and triggers by providing controls that are highly customizable all using properties. Perfect for quick and easy UI Development.
