Add Controls Section

[AlexHedley]

Would a controls section be useful?

For example
VB6 | twinBASIC | .NET
Show a comparison between any / all
Show the status - implemented / in progress / not

Maybe links to alternatives / community controls?

We could add the Examples / Remarks section but have the Constructors / Properties / Methods auto generated with something like https://dotnet.github.io/docfx/

e.g. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.windows.forms.textbox?view=windowsdesktop-10.0

@WaynePhillipsEA are the images used in the IDE available as a resource pack anywhere?
Just think it would be easier to use those in the docs, than screengrab each of them?

[WaynePhillipsEA]

Sorry, most are data-uri embedded into the CSS of the IDE.

I do like this idea of having a go-to resource for controls though. Ideally we'd also cover the most common ActiveX controls from third party vendors to give a general idea of what's working (or not), and whether they support 64-bit, DEP, and that sort of thing, but I appreciate that will take some time and effort.

[AlexHedley]

No problem, worth an ask.

ActiveX controls would be fab too, make everything as visible as possible.

Was thinking the same for an Add-Ins section and even a Showcase of tB apps.
