Kendo UI release date?

[Patrick Rioux]

Hi,

We are about to start a new project and your library seems very promising. Since Telerik is developing strong tools since many years I would seriously consider the Kendo UI product.  Just have some questions on the Roadmap.

1) I need to product a prototype and the form validation need to be in place. This seems to be in progress and should be deliver soon. Did you plan to deliver another Beta 3 before the official release that include forms validations?
2) What it the official release date?
3) Did you plan continuing to improve the grid control for supporting freezing column, column moving, grouping with sum/count/average?
4) We are using Intersystem Cache Database and just wondering how difficult would be implementing the server side objects to support CRUD operations with the datasource? I will dig a little bit more on this and see what I can do with the datasource functionalities.

Hello Patrick,

Straight onto your questions:

1. There will be no more Beta versions of Kendo UI. The official release is slated for November 30th and will include the validation extensions of the framework.
2. Answered in point 1
3. The grid widget will continue to receive feature updates for the forthcoming versions. In addition to the current set of features it has, for the v1 release it will support filtering and CRUD operations.
4. This should be theoretically possible if you supply your custom adapter for the Kendo UI data source in a similar manner as described in this blog post. Feel free to try that out to see how this goes.

Best regards,

Sebastian
the Telerik team
