+WebView2 Window Controls
+===
+
+# Background
+This API allows you to Enable and configure The Webview2 Window Controls overlay.
+The Overlay is a region on the top right/left of the webview window which contains 
+the caption buttons (minimize, maximize, restore, close). Enabing the Overlay allows
+for custom app title bars rendered completly inside the webview window.
+The overlay Settings lives on the controller object.
+
+This API is designed to be used in addition with the other non-client region APIs 
+and features. These include `app-region: drag`, and `IsNonClientRegionSupportEnabled`.
+# Examples
+
+## Win32 C++
+```cpp 
+AppWindow::AppWindow() {
+    m_mainWindow = CreateWindowExW(
+        WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT, 
+        GetWindowClass(),
+        L""
+        WS_POPUPWINDOW, 
+        0,0, 800, 800, 
+        nullptr, nullptr, 
+        g_hInstance, nullptr);
+}
+
+void  AppWindow::OnCreateWebview2ControllerCompleted(HRESULT hr, ICoreWebview2Controller* controller) 
+{
+    wil::com_ptr<ICoreWebView2Controller5> controller5;
+    CHECK_FAILURE(controller->QueryInterface(&controller5));
+
+    wil::com_ptr<ICoreWebView2WindowControlsOverlaySettings> wco_config;
+    CHECK_FAILURE(controller5->get_WindowControlsOverlaySettings(&wco_config));
+
+    wco_config->put_IsEnabled(true);
+    COREWEBVIEW2_COLOR color {1, 0, 0, 225};
+    wco_config->put_TitleBarColor(color);
+}
+```
+## .NET C#
+```c#
+// WebView2 control is defined in the xaml
+// <wv2:WebView2 x:Name="webView" Source="https://www.microsoft.com/"/>
+public MainWindow() 
+{
+    InitializeComponent();
+    m_AppWindow.TitleBar.ExtendsContentIntoTitleBar = true;
+
+    CoreWebView2WindowControlsOverlaySettings config = _coreWebView2Controller.WindowControlsOverlaySettings;
+    config.IsEnabled = true; 
+    config.color = Color.FromARGB(0, 0, 255);
+}
+```
+
+# API Details
+## Win32 C++
+```cpp
+/// Controller API used to configure the window controls overlay.
+/// To provide your app users with the best experience, it is important to handle webview 
+/// initialization errors appropriatly. Provide your users with a way to close the window
+/// or restart the App.
+[uuid(101e36ca-7f75-5105-b9be-fea2ba61a2fd), object, pointer_default(unique)]
+interface ICoreWebView2Controller5 : IUnknown {
+  /// Gets the `WindowControlsOverlaySettings` object.
+  [propget] HRESULT WindowControlsOverlaySettings([out, retval] ICoreWebView2WindowControlsOverlaySettings** value);
+}
+
+/// This is the ICoreWebView2WindowControlsOverlaySettings
+[uuid(c9f7378b-8dbb-5445-bacb-08a3fdf032f0), object, pointer_default(unique)]
+interface ICoreWebView2WindowControlsOverlaySettings : IUnknown {
+  /// Gets the `Height` property.
+  [propget] HRESULT Height([out, retval] UINT32* value);
+
+
+  /// The `Height` property in pixels, allows you to set the height of the overlay and
+  /// title bar area. Defaults to 48px. 
+  /// 
+  [propput] HRESULT Height([in] UINT32 value);
+
+
+  /// Gets the `IsEnabled` property.
+  [propget] HRESULT IsEnabled([out, retval] BOOL* value);
+
+
+  /// The `IsEnabled` property allows you to opt in to using
+  /// the WebView2 window controls overlay. Defaults to `FALSE`.
+  /// 
+  /// When this property is `TRUE`, WebView2 will draw its own minimize, maximize,
+  /// and close buttons on the top right corner of the Webview2. 
+  /// 
+  /// When using this you should configure your app window to not display its default
+  /// window control buttons. You are responsible for creating a title bar for your app
+  /// by using the available space to the left of the controls overlay. In doing so, 
+  /// you can utilize the [IsNonClientRegionSupportEnabled](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/reference/win32/icorewebview2settings9?view=webview2-1.0.2739.15)
+  /// API to enable draggable regions for your custom title bar.
+  /// 
+  /// The Overlay buttons will sit on top of the HTML content, and will prevent mouse interactions
+  /// with any elements directly below it, so you should avoid placing content there. 
+  /// To that end, there are four CSS environment vairables defined to help you 
+  /// get the dimensions of the available titlebar area to the left of the overlay.
+  /// Similarly the navigator object wil contain a  WindowControlsOverlay property
+  /// which can be used to get the titlebar area as a rect, and listen for changes
+  /// to the size of that area.
+  ///
+  [propput] HRESULT IsEnabled([in] BOOL value);
+
+  /// Gets the `TitleBarColor` property.
+  [propget] HRESULT TitleBarColor([out, retval] COREWEBVIEW2_COLOR* value);
+
+  /// The `TitleBarColor` property allows you to set a background color
+  /// for the overlay.
+  // Defaults to #f3f3f3
+  [propput] HRESULT TitleBarColor([in] COREWEBVIEW2_COLOR value);
+}
