How do I use controls from the toolkit
Type of issue
Missing information
Description
I was just trying to use this toolkit for the first time and I have no idea how. I managed to figure out which Nuget package to add from the gallery app to use SettingsCard control, but I think I also need to merge some resource dictionaries and I can't figure out how and which. Am I missing something obvious? Seems like something that should be improved. I was trying to guess, but the below didn't work: <ResourceDictionary Source="ms-appx:///CommunityToolkit.WinUI.Controls.SettingsControls/SettingsCard/SettingsCard.xaml" /

There's not extra resources like that you need to merge, though you should ensure you've properly configured your application to use the WinUI 2 resources in your App.xaml (if using UWP).
If you could provide more details on what type of app you're trying to build, how you're going about things, and what errors/problems you're seeing, we can provide better guidance.
