XAMLflix Introduces RadDragAndDrop
Hello everyone and welcome back to XAMLflix with RadDragAndDrop for Silverlight and WPF. I hope you have been enjoying the series as last week we took a look at RadTreeView and RadDocking. What is XAMLflix you might ask? Well, it is Telerik’s way of teaching you how to use both new and existing controls from Telerik’s XAML suite. Each and every Thursday, we will provide a fresh batch of videos and sample projects highlighting a different control. Since our Silverlight and WPF share a common codebase and API, you only have to learn how to use these controls once! You can simply copy and... -

Call to Action: Make LESS Native in Modern Browsers
It’s no secret. I’m a LESS fan. A BIG fan. If you’re not familiar with LESS, it’s an elegant CSS pre-processor that imbues the CSS syntax you already know with the kind of super powers you wish your styling language had out-of-the-box. Variables. Operations. Hierarchal rules. Mix-ins. LESS... -

Check out the new Exploratory Tool!
UPDATED: I goofed and listed Quality Center as an option for pushing bug reports to—but we only integrate bugs with TeamPulse and Team Foundation Server. As much as I love them, automated tests (be they functional, integration, or unit) aren’t the end-all-be-all for your testing approach. Exploratory testing, particularly for any system of any consequence, is a critical part of your overall “Deliver Great Stuff!” strategy. Getting your team freed up from repetitive regression testing empowers them to put their brains to use as they poke around the corners of your system. Exploratory testing gives you tremendous value as your ...May 27, 2021 2 min read -
Web ASP.NET MVC
Time Saving Features For MVC Developers
I recently started reacquainting myself with the Telerik MVC Extensions, and it seems I had forgotten just how awesome they are! I want to talk about a few of the less known features I find really awesome in the extensions. VS Extensions Telerik’s MVC extensions come with built in Visual Studio extensions to make project creation, and configuration, a snap. In addition, the extensions include a variety of project templates to help start new projects: -

The Present and Future of Using JSON in WebForms
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is the way to handle data on the client these days. It really is the cat’s pajamas. Almost all the client-side widgets or libraries that you’ll be working with will most likely be utilizing JSON, and sending large chunks of data over the wire as JSON as opposed to other bulky forms of data can lead to some dramatic performance increase across any application. I often come across individuals not sure of what JSON is, or how they can use it today, and I wanted to address this issue in a blog post. Of course I... -

Web ASP.NET AJAX
Take a Walk on the Client Side with WebAPI and WebForms
In my last blog I introduced the basics of using ASP.NET AJAX and WebAPI together in the same project. In addition, I showed how to bind results from WebAPI to a Telerik’s ASP.NET AJAX Grid. In this blog I will continue down this path and implement insert, update, and delete operations using WebAPI and RadGrid! Note: While this post focuses on using WebAPI in conjunction with RadGrid, most of the client code can be used when working with RadGrid in client mode.Set It Up! To get started an additional reference needs to be added to the project: System.Net.Http.Formatting Adding this reference allows us...
