You can find the source on Codeplex right next to other open source initiatives of ours, like Telerik MVC Extensions and CAB Enabling Kit for WinForms. A few caveats about the source code There are a few things that you need to know about the source code: Most of the code was written when we were quite new to WPF and we were pioneering all those concepts. Looking back at that time I realize there are things that...

It started when we realized that we had a lot of agile teams that compete in a very dynamic marketplace. Our teams at Telerik are agile, high performing, and need to rapidly react to new conditions.
