Controls by function (XAML)

[ This article is for Windows 8.x and Windows Phone 8.x developers writing Windows Runtime apps. If you’re developing for Windows 10, see the latest documentation ]

The XAML UI framework for Windows provides an extensive library of controls that support UI development. Some of these controls have a visual representation; others function as the containers for other controls or content, such as images and media. You can see many of the Windows UI controls in action by downloading the Controls and layout gallery sample and the XAML essential controls sample.

Here's a list by function of the common XAML controls you can use in your app. To see an alphabetical list of controls, see Controls list.

You can use most controls in your app UIs for both phone and PC . These controls typically have a similar look, but in some cases, they look different on the phone and PC. Other controls are available only for phone apps, or only for PC apps.
