Datagrid is not supported in a Windows Apps Project

I am trying to following along with this SO answer, however I am Visual Studio is complaining about the Datagrid is not supported in a Windows Apps project? Is there an alternative to Datagrid that I could use?

Ultimately I would like to create a grid of buttons that correspond to a MenuItem that is in a List menuLists.

I am new to databinding, so if anyone has better things I should be looking at, please let me know.

<Page
    x:Class="App1.Pages.MenuItemsPage"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
    xmlns:local="using:App1.Pages"
    xmlns:d="http://schemas.microsoft.com/expression/blend/2008"
    xmlns:mc="http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/markup-compatibility/2006"
    mc:Ignorable="d">
    <Page.Resources>
        <CollectionViewSource x:Key="MenuItemsCollectionViewSource" Source="{Binding MenuItems}"/>
    </Page.Resources>

    <Grid Background="{ThemeResource ApplicationPageBackgroundThemeBrush}">
        <Grid.RowDefinitions>
            <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
            <RowDefinition Height="Auto" />
        </Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <DataGrid Grid.Row ="0" ItemsSource ="{Binding Source = {StaticResource MenuItemsCollectionViewSource}}" />
    </Grid>
</Page>

Same problem solved for me when I changed Targer framework to .NET Framework 4.5. Originally it was NET Framework 3. It can be changed in project properties.

There is no control. There may be third party controls, or you can get similar layouts by templating a ListView.

I figured it out. I'm supposed to use GridView instead when I'm working on Pages.
