  1. ModernWpf

    Modern styles and controls for your WPF applications

    Only really works if you or your users are a fan of Material Design, and honestly MD seems to have declined in usage overall, and there are no big apps for Windows using MD. Seems like you'd be better off with either a totally radical design/theme, and have the design resources to do that, or use something that looks like a native Windows app, whether thats the Win32 look, WPF defaults, or something WinUI inspired like https://github.com/Kinnara/ModernWpf
