+# Getting Started with WPF TabControl (TabControlExt)
+
+This sample demonstrates the basic steps to integrate and use the **Syncfusion WPF TabControlExt** control in a WPF application. It shows how to add the control via XAML and C#, configure its size, and create multiple tab items with custom headers and content.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+- **Visual Studio** (latest version recommended)
+- **.NET Framework / .NET Core**
+- Syncfusion WPF assemblies:
+  - `Syncfusion.Tools.WPF`
+  - `Syncfusion.Shared.WPF`
+
+---
+
+## Steps to Add TabControlExt
+
+### 1. Create a WPF Project
+Open Visual Studio and create a new WPF application.
+
+### 2. Add Required Assemblies
+Add references to:
+- `Syncfusion.Tools.WPF`
+- `Syncfusion.Shared.WPF`
+
+### 3. Import Syncfusion Namespace
+Add the following namespace in your XAML file:
+```xml
+xmlns:syncfusion="http://schemas.syncfusion.com/wpf"
+```
+
+---
+
+## Adding TabControl via XAML
+
+```xml
+<Window x:Class="TabControlDemo.MainWindow"
+        xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
+        xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

+        mc:Ignorable="d"
+        Title="TabControl Demo" Height="450" Width="800">
+    <Grid>
+        <syncfusion:TabControlExt Name="tabControl"
+                                  ShowTabListContextMenu="True"
+                                  ShowTabItemContextMenu="True"
+                                  TabScrollStyle="Extended"
+                                  TabScrollButtonVisibility="Visible"

+                                  IsNewButtonEnabled="True"
+                                  NewButtonClick="TabControl_NewButtonClick"
+                                  TabStripPlacement="Top">
+
+            <syncfusion:TabItemExt Header="tabItem1">
+                <TextBlock Text="This is the first tab item." />
+                <syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+                    <syncfusion:CustomMenuItem Header="Menu1" />
+                </syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+            </syncfusion:TabItemExt>
+
+            <syncfusion:TabItemExt Header="tabItem2" IsSelected="True" CanClose="False" CloseButtonState="Collapsed">
+                <TextBlock Text="This is the second tab item." />
+                <syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+                    <syncfusion:CustomMenuItem Header="Menu2" />
+                </syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+            </syncfusion:TabItemExt>
+
+            <syncfusion:TabItemExt Header="tabItem3">
+                <TextBlock Text="This is the third tab item." />
+                <syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+                    <syncfusion:CustomMenuItem Header="Menu3" />
+                </syncfusion:TabItemExt.ContextMenuItems>
+            </syncfusion:TabItemExt>
+
+        </syncfusion:TabControlExt>
+    </Grid>
+</Window>
+```
+

+
+## Adding TabControl via C#

+```csharp
+using Syncfusion.Windows.Tools.Controls;
+
+public partial class MainWindow : Window {
+    public MainWindow() {
+        InitializeComponent();
+
+        // Create TabControlExt instance
+        TabControlExt tabControlExt = new TabControlExt {
+            Height = 100,
+            Width = 280
+        };
+
+        // Add TabControl to window
