Do you know any freely available WPF component for using masks (regex) in textbox?
I think you will find what you need in this control library: http://www.codeplex.com/WPFDeveloperTools
Look for 'FilteredTextBox' amongst all the other useful controls. I don't think it does regex, but it should be able to filter just about everything you need, and since you will have the source, you should find it easy to enhance.
As a bonus, it is free and open source on CodePlex.
You can also find a nice blog post about how to go about implementing this yourself here: http://marlongrech.wordpress.com/2007/10/28/masked-textbox/
Extended WPF Toolkit has a MaskedTextBox similar to the one that was in WinForms. As with the old one, this doesn't actually support RegExes, but has a subset of useful masks.
Oh, and it's on NuGet, which is nice.
Coding Monk has a good TextboxEditMask Behavior. You can either download the source code or just use the dlls.

Where would I start if I want to create my own text editor on the UWP platform?
The TextBox and RichEditBox have many limitations that hinder my requirements for a text control, and so I would like to create my own. I know it will be a long tedious process, but I don't mind putting in the work. I just don't even know what APIs to begin with. Thanks.
I would suggest that you start by looking at source code that others have written. You can download the following projects from GitHub:
10Develops/textie
ph1ll/UwpEdit
jan-patrick/ScriptText
UWP-Open-Source-Community/Atom
springcomp/TextPad
karan-randhawa/Notepad-Sharp
ph1ll/UwpEdit
Besides reading the code and running in the Debugger, I would also suggest looking at the Commit history for these apps on GitHub, to see what problems the developers struggled with.

Due to the nature of the keywords, I find it difficult to easily google this. I want to implement a "help" item on the menu bar that will launch some basic documentation for the user to read, after I have written it. Are there any standards or libraries I should be aware about before diving into this aspect? The program incorporating the "help" functionality will be a C# WPF Desktop application.
Example from MS Word :
I'm sure they don't reinvent the wheel every time they use the help function, and I don't want to either. Where can I look to find something open source that is similar to this functionality and maybe some general guidelines on how to write help for non-technical and technical users?
I think that following links should be useful for you.

I am looking for some sort of API similar to Photoshop functionality, I need to create an image using layers/masks/filters programmatically.
An example: I know how to make a nice button in Photoshop, there is a sequence of simple actions. What I want is to automate this process and generate an image of the button on the fly with a few input parameters.
I think I am not the first one who came up with such idea, there must be some library out there that does this thing. Unfortunately I cannot find anything.
Thanks!
You failed to mention if the library needs to be free/open source or if commercial libraries are acceptable but one of the best out there is GdPicture.NET. I doubt you'll find anything free that is remotely comprehensive but a good free one is Filters library (LGPL).
i don't think there is an API like this
but there is free open source software which is Paint.net
get it here
http://www.getpaint.net/download.html
see source code here

hope it helped
GDI+ in .NET?
Although I haven't used them you could take a look at:
Emgu CV: http://www.emgu.com/wiki/index.php/Emgu_CV
or OpenCvSharp : http://code.google.com/p/opencvsharp/
ImageMagic have layers support http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/layers/ and there is Net wrapper

Following this question from last year. I am checking two open source ribbon controls:
Fluent
Odyssey
Do you have any experience (good or bad) with any of them? or perhaps know of another open source ribbon control?
Follow up:
After using both of them, I gave up Odyssey cause it had a lot of bugs. I then switched to Fluent and I have only good words to say about it.
I've been trialling the WPF toolkit. Bear in mind - it's not open source per se - you don't get the source code. However, I believe it is free for use etc.
It's reasonably easy to use and has some reasonable commanding support. The documentation is not particularly in-depth, but it looks good - same as the ribbon used in Office 2007 etc. and has a few themes.
I'd say give it a look before spending money on a third party commercial ribbon control.
there is one included in the WPF toolkit dont know how good/bad it it. we use one that we bought.

Any good Gtk libraries out there? I know of Holly Gtk Widgets, any other good ones out there?
Are there any good ones for menubar or toolbar ? Thanks!
There's also Medsphere Widgets, with a good graph widget, among other things.
MonoDevelop has a docking library and text/source editor widget that have no dependencies on the rest of MD.
In addition, MonoDevelop and Banshee both have some good widgets that would be relatively easy to extract.
How about GTK+ OpenGL extension for plugging OpenGL graphics into your application?
The VMWare team have a few simple but nice widgets in their open source pool.
Edit: Sorry saw you tagged it with C#. This widgets are written in C
