Load resources using MRT Core

MRT Core is the modern resource loading library used in WinUI 3 and the Windows App SDK. These samples demonstrate how to use MRT Core to load resources from multiple resource files and how to select which version of a specific named resource to load.

Prerequisites

• See System requirements for Windows app development.
• Make sure that your development environment is set up correctly—see Install tools for developing apps for Windows 10 and Windows 11.
  • For the unpackaged sample apps, make sure to also install the prerequisites for deploying unpackaged apps.

Building and running any of the samples

• Open the solution file (.sln) from the subfolder of your preferred sample in Visual Studio.
• From Visual Studio, either Start Without Debugging (Ctrl+F5) or Start Debugging (F5).
