This Universal Windows Platform platform-specific is used to change the placement of a toolbar on a Page, and is consumed in XAML by setting the Page.ToolbarPlacement attached property to a value of the ToolbarPlacement enumeration:

<TabbedPage ...
            xmlns:windows="clr-namespace:Xamarin.Forms.PlatformConfiguration.WindowsSpecific;assembly=Xamarin.Forms.Core"
            windows:Page.ToolbarPlacement="Bottom">
  ...
</TabbedPage>

Alternatively, it can be consumed from C# using the fluent API:

using Xamarin.Forms.PlatformConfiguration;
using Xamarin.Forms.PlatformConfiguration.WindowsSpecific;
...

page.On<Windows>().SetToolbarPlacement(ToolbarPlacement.Bottom);

The Page.On<Windows> method specifies that this platform-specific will only run on Windows. The Page.SetToolbarPlacement method, in the Xamarin.Forms.PlatformConfiguration.WindowsSpecific namespace, is used to set the toolbar placement, with the ToolbarPlacement enumeration providing three values: Default, Top, and Bottom.

The result is that the specified toolbar placement is applied to the Page instance:
