Drop-in replacements are available for several native panels, including Canvas, DockPanel, StackPanel and WrapPanel. Other controls are also included such as a TaskBoard for visually organizing tasks, Book for presenting a page turning interface and InertiaScrollViewer for a smoothly animated variation of the ScrollViewer control.
