Toolbox support

With Visual Studio 2017 a Toolbox support has been added for the NuGet packaged to easily view and categorize the controls. As soon as the NuGet package is referenced, the controls it contains will appear in the Toolbox for you to use in your application. These controls can be used just like any other Toolbox control, with drag and drop support on the design surface.
