If you want to do it yourself with the Composition API, it's quite some work indeed. Luckily we got a great community, and one of those open source projects is the UWP Community Toolkit. This toolkit contains a DropShadowPanel control that does the hard work for you.

Note that you'll have to set the app version to 10.0.14393.0 (Anniversary Update) for this effect.
