Good Ol’ Visual Aid With a Twist in JustCode
Along with the brand new goodies coming with the latest release of Telerik JustCode, i.e. support for QUnit and Jasmine JavaScript testing frameworks, opening the API to the public, All Types Code Completion (a.k.a. JustCode IntelliSense), etc., there comes a major overhaul of an old friend of ours – the Visual Aid, or lovingly shortened to VA. The main part of the rework there is in the direction of behavior configurability. Thus, a stand-alone VA settings page is brought to life in the Visual Features menu of JustCode options dialog. The old settings are still there. "Show visual aid tag" option will show/hide the... -

Kendo UI rocks at jQuery UK
We had a smashing time at jQuery UK! The conference took place on February 10 in the Saïd Business School in the noble city of Oxford, UK, and was packed with juicy content produced by excellent speakers. It was hard to miss the orange Kendo UI booth, right next to the conference hall. There was a ton of swag (the electric orange Kendo t-shirts are great for cyclists, by the way), and we gave away five Kendo UI licenses! Congrats to the lucky winners, we hope you enjoy them. We figured that people deserved a matching after-party, so we decided to sponsor it!
