Telerik radControls for .NET is a finalist in the 2007 Codie Awards
It's really exciting to see the telerik radControls for WinForms get their first industry recognition just a few months after their official release! Several days ago we got notice that our UI components for desktop development have been selected as a finalist in the "Best Software Development Solution" category in the 2007 SIIA Codie Awards. Citing the organizers, "The Codie Awards celebrate achievement and vision in software, education technology and digital content. Presented by the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), these awards represent the only-peer reviewed honor in the industry. For 22 years, SIIA Codie Awards have been the leading honor for the... -

WebDD: I'll be there
I am very excited to spread the news: I will be presenting at the WebDD conference. I am giving a talk on developing ASP.NET AJAX components -- one of my pet projects for some time now. Wait! There's more: Zhivko, our usability master and design guru will have a session on usability testing. Don't miss it out! -

.NET 1.x support in radControls for ASP.NET
The time has come when we need to make a decision that may affect some of you (most of you) - we need to make a decision whether or not to stop adding new features and products to the .NET 1.x version of rad Controls for ASP.NET. For over a year we have maintained parallel .NET 1.x and .NET 2.0 versions of our controls and this has worked out well for us and for customers. On the downside, maintaining a release schedule with a set of nearly 20 ASP.NET controls, with .NET 1.x and .NET 2.0 versions, different help files for each... -

Year 2006 is almost over
Now that the calendar will soon flip to 2007, I inevitably started musing over 2006... What a great year it was for telerik - the ASP.NET UI product line evolved quite a bit, the new Windows Forms UI suite and Reporting products were revealed, we successfully organized a strong community event, the vibrant telerik community continued to grow, we brought to life some really creative commercials, the telerik.com site was enriched with many new features and resources... I started this blog post with the idea to talk in detail about the things we managed (and didn't manage) to do during the past year... -

The Q4 Release
As I said in my previous blog post, the three ingredients needed for a good Vista-like applications are known... But this begs the question - what does telerik do about it? May be you'll find the answer in our latest Q4 2006 release. Specifically for the WinForms controls we've improved quite a lot the RibbonBar control (ScreenTips, KeyTips, Gallery, etc.), we've introduced scaling for all of the framework element / items, we've added a new control (r.a.d.panelbar) and the docking controls now support MDI.A picture is worth a thousand words so here are some screenshots of the examples which we have... -

MCPD / Enterprise Applications Developer
I’ve recently completed my certification (ah, thanks, you’re too kind!) and a lot of people have been asking me what’s the deal with all the new .NET 2.0 credentials. I will try to answer those questions in the following blog post. For those among you who don’t already know Microsoft has reorganized their certification system. In the .NET 1.x world there were two recognizable certifications that could interest professional developers like us: MCAD (Microsoft Certified Application Developer) and MCSD (Microsoft Certified Solutions Developer). The MCAD certification was aimed at regular developers who could choose to specialize in either windows forms or web applications.... -

Recipe for Vista. A step ahead
The first CTP of WPF/E is official and it rocks! If I were Steve Ballmer I would shout: Designers, designers, designers, designers, designers.... Why designers? May be because as a developer (or at least that's how I consider my mindset) I miss too much WPF features in WPF/E at the moment, starting from the handy, nice layouts. I hope someone from the telerik UX team will try it and share his/her experience to the reading public. Btw, there're new Expression tools (announced as Expression Studio) so expect some blog posts from the people who make our site and products look so nice. Today's... -

Web testing vs. Telerik -- 0 : 1
Hi telerik fans. Just a few words to introduce myself. My name is Konstantin Petkov and I am a QA person here, at telerik. I am new to blogging and I will try to turn this place into a resource on creating quality software along with some inside info from telerik’s kitchen. So, what am I doing here, at telerik? My main responsibility of course is finding and notifying our developers about any freshly-cooked bugs, so that the dev staff can react immediately and address those issues, leaving you, our customer, happy with all the cool features ...May 27, 2021 3 min read -

WPF/Everywhere, somewhere?... Anywhere?
The last time I've heard something about WPF/e was at the Mix conference this year in Las Vegas. Because of all the noise around WPF, and some really good community sites which started showing up and were mostly dedicated to WPF, I almost forgot about WPF/e. Several days ago I searched about WPF/e and found a blog post by Joe Stegman who says that an external CTP is expected to be released soon. I've been waiting for quite some time to put my hands on WPF/e and see exactly what are its limitations comparing it to its big brother - WPF. I...
