Avalonia Data Templates

Overview

DataTemplates define how a data object is rendered as UI. They apply to:

• ItemsControl and subclasses (ListBox, TreeView) via ItemTemplate
• TableViewColumn.CellTemplate (12.1+) and DataGrid template columns (see Column Templates below)
• ContentControl and subclasses via ContentTemplate
• Any Content property — Avalonia walks up the template tree to find a matching DataTemplate

Template matching is by the data object's runtime type. First matching template in scope wins.
