Hi, this isn't an issue, just a question. I've been reviewing the source code but I'm unable to understand it. Can anyone explain how Terminal is able to use XAML Islands to host a Tabview, which is in the Microsoft namespace? I was under the impression that XAML Islands can only host stuff from the Windows namespace. But I'm also thoroughly confused by all these frameworks. Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks for any info.
