I'm well aware that Kendo UI is fairly new and that the team is working hard to improve various aspects of the framework. But RIGHT NOW, what would be the best way to start building a serious, large application with Kendo UI? I'm especially interested in the following topics:
- Maybe I am blind but so far I haven't seen anything like layouts (see e.g. ExtJS) which help me in building complex, resizeable arrangements of the various UI widgets. So assuming there are no layouts at the moment, what is the best way to get similar results?
- Probably most complex applications use some kind of docking component (see e.g. RadDocking) which lets the user rearrange different views. Are there any plans on building such a component for Kendo UI?
- For the moment I could live without a docking component as long as there are some basic layouts as mentioned above and some kind of collapsible containers. Is there anything like that?
- I've seen that the next framework version will provide a MVVM infrastructure. This is great news. But when I need to setup my application architecture right now, how would I do this? Knockout.js? Do you think it's possible to migrate from Knockout to Kendo's MVVM infrastructure afterwards?
Alright, these are quite my primary questions. It would be great to get some feedback about this.
Thank you in advance and
merry christmas,
Stephan
