[Solved] What system does Telerik use for help?

[Darren]

I quite like the look and functionality of the Telerik help documentation (seen here:  http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/introduction.html).

Does anyone know what tool was used to create and publish the help files?  Is it available for purchase?

I, in no way actually know, think they custom built it. It looks like it uses a lot of the telerik controls, so I'd assume it's custom built.
I know the old help system they had was robohelp. This one looks much nicer.
If it is a custom built solution, it would be a sweet thing to release to people who bought controls. *GRIN*


That's just my opinion on things.

I was very happy to see the new help system, very smooth.

Hello Baatezu,

We're using HelpStudio (from Innovasys) for writing our content. After that we import the topics in a database and do some additional processing to show it the way you see it.

We used RoboHelp long time ago, back in 2004 but we had online versions of RoboHelp only for a month or two.

I hope this answers the question.

All the best,

Thanks Nikolay, that helps.  HelpStudio looks good, I'll check it out.

I agree with Baatezu, it would be great if Telerik released the code for the Help pages!
