Release

This week we are about to release a private CTP of RadControls for WPF. We will be sending the CTP build to all people who have previously requested WPF controls. If you still haven't requested WPF controls from our support or sales folks don't hesitate to drop them a line and we'll send you a build. If you're reading regularly the Telerik blogs may be you haven't missed Vassil's post about the Show Off videos which we prepared for MIX 08.

There are many new programming concepts going on in WPF and I will try to keep a series of blog posts which will reveal my experiences and thoughts from the viewpoint of an ex-ASP.NET developer diving into the brave new world of WPF.     These days I am dealing with a lot of...

We have been using the same old installer for a very long time. The reason for that is very simple - because it worked. However, with the release of the new RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax suite we felt that it is time for a change. The people who tried our new futures build for Q1 2008 already know what I am talking about - the Prometheus controls come with a totally redesigned installation experience.

With design and User Experience fast gathering momentum as the leading factors behind the success or failure of IT projects, we're continuing efforts here at telerik to make sure the RadControls suites stay at the forefront of presentation layer trends. We have been riding the waves with the introduction of our black skin (ever since Vista and Office 2007, black seems to be the new white in interface design), and we fully support both the Vista and the Office 2007 interface looks - for the web and Winforms.
