    MVC design template

    We have just uploaded a contribution to Microsoft’s MVC design contest – a web-design template free for all to use with the MVC framework. Our entry is a clean, simple, blue-themed web-design generic enough to fit a broad range of scenarios. Please feel free to download and jumpstart your next project.

Our RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX already boasts full support for the MVC (see live demo, join our forums), so we thought providing an out-of-the-box design solution is a logical next step. Initiatives like this...
