The FrameworkBootstrapper class has been a source of confusion mostly due to the lack of documentation. I've just updated and posted the documentation explaining what it does and how it can be customized.

I think it would also be a good idea to make it clear that the code on that documentation page:

<Application x:Class="SampleApplication.App"
             xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             xmlns:app="clr-namespace:SampleApplication;assembly=SampleApplication.SL">
    <Application.Resources>
        <app:AppBootstrapper x:Key="Bootstrapper" />
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>

I don't think it will work for a WPF app, you've got to use:

<Application x:Class="SampleApplication.App"
             xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
             xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
             xmlns:app="clr-namespace:SampleApplication;assembly=SampleApplication.SL">
    <Application.Resources>
<ResourceDictionary>
<ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
<ResourceDictionary>
        <app:AppBootstrapper x:Key="Bootstrapper" />
</ResourceDictionary>
</ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
</ResourceDictionary>
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>

That is very true. Thank you for pointing that out. I will update the page.
