Hello, all, and welcome to the February, 2012 edition of the Telerik newsletter! As the newest employee at Telerik, I’m still learning all of the good stuff we’re doing just in the area of developer tools. For example, the features in JustCode that fix up my using statements (Ctrl+Shift+U) and show me a type’s shape and implementation via the JustDecompile integration (F12) are now ingrained into my fingertips, but I just learned (JustLearned!) that if I want to get completions on types that aren’t even listed in my using statements, I can use Ctrl+Alt+Space and keep right on coding, which is one of a ton of new features in...

Congrats for the next official version of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX! It is live and you can download it now. Or check the release notes and the live demos first.

I also posted a brand-new video showing how to work with Test Lists inside Visual Studio. This short video shows you how to set up test lists to deal with Test Studio tests. You’ll see a ...

The first day of the TechDays conference in Belgium is behind us and Telerik made some nice impression on the crowd there. Lots of people came by our booth with different interests and inquiries. Some of them were active clients and just stopped by to say “Hi” and grab a .NET Ninja T-shirt or a ninja stress ball. Others were impressed to hear more about our agile project management tool – TeamPulse, the automated testing tool – Testing Studio, our productivity tools – JustCode and JustDecompile, and our HTML5, CSS3 and jQuery powered KendoUI suite. For those of you who couldn’t manage...
