QuestionBuilding custom controls from common wpf controls Pin

So I'm learning C# WPF coming from Java. Those who know Java, know it can get interesting creating complicated widows applications as it's all done in Java code (I've never seen it done like wpf work xaml).

I'm not sure if this is something I want to take yet, but it is a question in the back of my mind.

Our company IT guy says you can make a custom dll of ui elements in xaml and code, then compile as a dll. I asked because I want sure if you could only write dlls with C# code and not xaml, he did admit in the several years in C C# he's never actually done this.

But, is it possible to write the dll, using common already available controls and maybe extending the classes idk yet. But using common wpf controls changing the view of those controls.

For example, say I wanted to change the look of the openfiledialog but keep all the functionality (maybe add to it) is there a way to capture the functionality, and build a GUI for it?
