MVVM, HTML5 & OpenAccess Sample Project

[Tim]

Is there a sample project that uses the MVVM framework along with the HTML5 widgets and OpenAcess as the data tier?  While I have found many small samples for each part I have not found one combining them.  It would be nice to see what a "Best Practice" would be in laying out the Visual Studio project.  I am working on a small project that I want to use they technologies on.

Hello Tim,

I am afraid that we do not have such example. Kendo UI is a client-side framework which is not aware of the server technology that you are using. There would not be any difference in  the MVVM setup no matter what data tier you are using.

Is the grid able to bind to a remote data source using the MVVM framework?  I have been able to get the grid to load but edit, update, and delete's do not work.  What I was looking for is an example of this using a remote data source, not a local one.

Hello again Tim,


Yes it is possible 
The following demos are using remote data for remote binding:

Basically the declarative initialization is working the same way as the standard JavaScript syntax ( in fact in is translated to JavaScript after all). http://jsbin.com/ucuzub/2/edit

More examples with the remote operations with the dataSource and ASP.NET as back end can be found in our github repository:

Also do not forget to check the troubleshooting section to avoid the common mistakes.
