Styling
Styles in Avalonia are used to share property settings between controls. The Avalonia styling system can be thought of as a mix of CSS styling and WPF/UWP styling. At its most basic, a style consists of a selector and a collection of setters.
The following style selects any
TextBlock in the Window with a h1 style class and sets its font size to 24 point and font weight to bold:1
<Window xmlns="https://github.com/avaloniaui"
2
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">

<Window.Styles>

<Style Selector="TextBlock.h1">
5
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="24"/>
6
<Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold"/>
