Extended WPF Toolkit™
A comprehensive collection of free WPF controls, components, and utilities for building modern Windows desktop applications.
What is Extended WPF Toolkit™?
Extended WPF Toolkit is an open-source collection of controls, components, and utilities for Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). It provides developers with a wide array of UI elements—like advanced pickers, editors, dialogs, and layout panels—that are not included in the standard WPF framework, solving the problem of building modern, professional Windows desktop applications without reinventing common controls.
WPF developers and desktop application engineers building Windows applications who need enhanced UI controls beyond the standard WPF offering, particularly those targeting enterprise or professional-grade software.
Developers choose this toolkit because it offers a mature, widely adopted (over 1 million downloads), and free set of controls that significantly accelerate WPF development, reducing the need to build custom controls from scratch while maintaining compatibility with the WPF ecosystem.
