How To Use Multilingual App Toolkit (MAT) for RESX localization

The first step is to download and install MAT 4.0 from https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MultilingualAppToolkit.MultilingualAppToolkit-18308 (or directly from Visual Studio by using Tools->Extensions and Updates.

Once MAT is installed, you will have a new menu item under your Tools menu - "Mutlilingual App Toolkit".

You will use that menu to enable MAT in new projects. You should not need to use it unless you are adding a new project to LibMan (or starting a completely different product/project).
