  - If running 0.62, also select `#include "winrt/RNFetchBlob.h"`

## Bundling PDFs with the app
To add a `test.pdf` like in the example add:
```
<None Include="..\..\test.pdf">
  <DeploymentContent>true</DeploymentContent>
</None>
```
in the app `.vcxproj` file, before `<None Include="packages.config" />`.
