Description

The ResourceManagement sample does not show the most common WinUI 3 case for localization: Strings in XAML files.

I was wondering how to use MRT Core with x:Uid attributes. The existence of the two resource systems has me pretty confused.

Should I just stay with "Windows.ApplicationModel.Resources.ResourceLoader"?

Research direction

Start with the ResourceManagement sample and investigate how MRT Core handles localized strings in XAML with x:Uid attributes, including how this relates to Windows.ApplicationModel.Resources.ResourceLoader. Done means the sample demonstrates the common WinUI 3 XAML localization case and explains which resource system to use.
