Full details about today’s news are available during the following
sessions:
New in Telerik DevCraft Q2 2015:
Mobile Optimized UI for Telerik® Web Controls:
Recognizing the need for developers to build apps tailored for any
screen size quickly, Progress has added more responsive features to its
Telerik family of web controls, including the wildly popular Kendo UI®
HTML5 and JavaScript framework. Highlights include mobile-optimized UI
for the Editor, TreeList, Data Pager and Image Gallery controls in UI
for ASP.NET AJAX and Editor, Chart and TabStrip controls for UI for
ASP.NET MVC and Kendo UI.
In addition, the Telerik Kendo UI product now comes equipped with a new
modern mobile theme, Nova, bringing a fresh and elegant look to apps
built with the Kendo UI mobile widgets for all mobile OS platforms.
Build Native Mobile Apps: With the new
addition to UI for Xamarin, developers can implement the ListView for
Xamarin.Forms, which is often the backbone of a mobile app, in their iOS
and Android apps from a single, shared C# codebase. Developers
preferring the native approach to building mobile apps can take
advantage of the new DataForm control for UI for iOS and UI for Android.
The Desktop UI Suites: A variety of new
business and enterprise capabilities enable desktop developers to create
line of business apps faster. A new predefined Visual Studio template
enables developers to create a scheduler app in just a few clicks, and
document processing improvements for existing controls in both UI for
WPF and UI for WinForms provide more export options to PDF, Word and
Excel files. Additionally, new desktop UI controls include a Desktop
Alert and Wizard for WPF and a Popup Editor, ToggleSwitch and Layout
control for WinForms.
Support for MVC 6: Progress
continues to work on leveraging MVC 6 functionality in the Telerik UI
for ASP.NET MVC, as well as Telerik Kendo UI, products and is committed
to deliver official support when Microsoft announces the RTM version of
the framework.
“We have always been a first stop for .NET developers because we’re
known for providing the most up-to-date tools to build modern
and future-proof business applications,” said Aaron Mahimainathan,
Senior Vice President, DevTools and Telerik Platform, Progress. “With
the Q2 2015 release, we’re continuing our tradition of cutting edge
innovation by bringing together the core elements necessary for mobile
success – responsiveness, optimized controls and more. We believe this
helps to streamline and accelerate the development process and provide
value-add to our customers.”
The Q2 release is currently available.
