plan for how you will create content groups!
What are optional packages?
 A way to componentize a UWP App
 Packages that can separate licensing and acquisition from the main app
 Package that can be content only or run native code
 Require a main app present to be installed
 Inherits the main apps capabilities
 Runs in the app identity of the main app, like it is one app
