using VS 2013 and MahApps. I want to create a simple totally custion dialog, and am lost.

I would like to use XAML, but only code is also OK. The examples and documentations are very limited. Anyone can walk me through this?

Thanks!

There's already an answer from MahApps author. He suggested to replace the dialog template with a style.

Also, there's a SimpleChildWindow project that he's supporting. It's not totally custom but surely simple.
