   @Endt4sk the Toolkit controls aren't built for consumption by C++. Are you using UWP or the Windows App SDK at the moment? (WinUI is a bit ambiguous).

   If you're using UWP, we have an example we put together here on how to create a C#/WinRT component to host a Toolkit component for consumption by a C++/WinRT app: https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/Sample-Windows-CppWinRT

   However, we haven't attempted to migrate or try this scenario out yet on the Windows App SDK. A similar approach would theoretically be possible, but in either case, there's aren't really well supported scenarios.

   It'd be good to upvote and comment on the DataGrid issue on the WinUI repo to let them know you need this scenario for C++ as well here: microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml#1500
