Dxperience 12.1 - Tools for Bridging released by Devexpress


DevExpress, a leading global software development company, announced today the next release in the DXv2 generation of software development tools, DXperience 12.1.  The technology landscape is quickly changing. New platforms are emerging and more than ever we find great user experience and agile design at the center of the development conversation. Developers are looking to deliver next-generation user experiences to their users, on the desktop, on the Web or across a broad array of Touch-enabled mobile devices. DXperience 12.1 tools and components help developers take on these new challenges using their existing skills & the technologies available today. "It's critical to DevExpress that our tools provide a bridge from our customers' existing investments in ASP.NET to future platforms like iOS. We're committed to delivering that bridge to ensure developers have a smooth transition," said Julian Bucknall, Chief Technology Officer at DevExpress.

Right Platform. Right Design. Right Decision.

Beautiful design and rich user experiences are also moving to the center of the development conversation. Legacy applications now must run on an array of new mobile devices, like iPads, slates and mobile phones. Building applications  designed for the device they'll run on requires more focus than ever on great design principles . The design time visualization, dynamic themes and new tools like the Cross-Platform Data Library in DXperience  12.1 by DevExpress help developers to realize their creative vision.

"With 12.1, we're going to start with a revolutionary new approach to building applications. We don't believe that developers want to be building applications from individual controls," said Dave Mendlen, Chief Marketing Officer. "As the computing industry gravitates to simpler and more polished applications, we want to help developers create these by starting at a much higher level of abstraction. Why should developers be forced to assemble the pieces together?"

Dazzling Design. Developer Delivered.
Touch-enabled application development requires developers to re-think the future of application design and user experiences. From a WinForms developer building client applications to a Web developer building for mobile platforms, DXperience 12.1 by DevExpress, helps to by leveraging the rich skillsets developers already have and the technologies available today. New docking panels in DXperience 12.1  and support for gestures across the entire suite of tools and  will take Touch to the next level.  New built-in themes, like the Metropolis Dark,  help developers to create applications that are as elegant as they are efficient.

"DevExpress has been investing in building natural user interface components that look and behave like native iOS controls.  This industry leading investment means that an ASP.NET developer can build a solution using the skills and tools they have today along with the DXperience 12.1 controls from DevExpress and effectively build Touch-enabled iOS applications that look and feel native to the device," said Tim Huckaby, founder and chairman of InterKnowlogy and Actus Interactive Software.

Better Code. Smaller, Faster, Tested
Whether you're new to development or are coding at the professional level, CodeRush by DevExpress is a productivity-enhancing tool that helps developers write smaller, higher quality code, faster.  Allowing developers to manage code reliability, CodeRush enhances the Visual Studio 12 development environment while not interfering with their daily coding practices. And, building great user experiences requires attention to every detail and an integrated testing plan. The new tools in DXperience 12.1 for WinForms now includes new Coded UI support, providing functional testing of the user interface and validation of user interface controls. With over 400 automated UI tests included in the installation and with full MSAA technology compliance, developers can now test that the user interface is functioning correctly after code changes. These tests are quicker to run than manual tests so they can be run more frequently.

Award Winning
With over 100 awards, the DXperience products have a long history of success with customers. Recently DevExpress garnered the most awards from Visual Studio Magazine's Reader's Choice. In addition, DevExpress was awarded the Best of Visual Studio Award at the Best of Connections event in November.

Free Trial
Developers can download the free, 30-day trial to experience the power of touch-enabled controls, visually stunning applications, and accelerated productivity at www.devexpress.com.

Q2 release for Developer Tools annouces by Telerik


Portfolio of Developer Tools Deliver Broad Array of Enhancements for Mobile, Rich Data Visualization and Interactivity

Telerik, an end-to-end provider of software application lifecycle and content management solutions, today announced the immediate availability of the Q2 2012 release of its developer tools. This latest release from Telerik addresses developers' requirements around mobile, cloud, and the imminent arrival of the touch-driven Metro interface. Telerik's Q2 release is packed with enhancements facilitating web, desktop, mobile and cloud development, adds new data visualization controls for richer interactivity and sleeker visual data effects, as well as the first cloud-enabled flagship Visual Studio productivity tool.

Highlights of the release include:

ASP.NET AJAX

Raising the bar on its RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX, Telerik is shipping three controls, including the eagerly anticipated HTML5 Chart that introduces a new level of data visualizations to developers' applications. Also new are RadODataDataSource, helping developers readily bind controls to OData services, and RadBarCode, enabling them to easily add industry standard barcode formats to their apps. To deliver users a better experience with apps built using Telerik's controls on mobile devices, the company will also ship a new specifically designed mobile skin that features touch-friendly improvements, such as font size and larger clickable areas for elements.

JustCode

Telerik breaks new ground to lead the industry by being the first and only vendor to cloud-enable its Visual Studio extension, JustCode. With this release, developers can simply save their JustCode settings in the cloud. Users can easily access and work with their customized settings from multiple machines or Visual Studio instances. In addition, helping developers stay even more efficient, a nifty "Clean All" feature will instantly organize, label and file everything in production quality files.

Telerik Report Designer

Graduating from beta to final release, the new Telerik Report Designer is a stand-alone Windows application that allows both end-users and developers to create, edit, export, and reuse ad-hoc reports on-the-fly. This tool empowers users to proactively analyze data using a friendly, timesaving report interface.

RadControls for Metro

Announced last week, Telerik is conducting an exclusive preview of industry- first commercial suite for building Windows 8 apps, RadControls for Metro, for attendees of Microsoft's TechEd 2012. The forthcoming toolset will provide key functionality on top of Windows 8 SDK. Interested developers can subscribe to the company's Windows 8 Dev Club or TechEd attendees can visit Telerik's booth (#1841) to obtain a special promo code in order to gain early access to the product.

XAML

Telerik's XAML suites are now more powerful than ever. Rich data visualization takes on new meaning with the official release of RadDiagrams, the beta release of RadGanttView, and the new RadHeatMap. RadDiagrams is a powerful, extensible diagramming framework that enables XAML developers to create a multitude of rich, interactive scenarios within their line-of-business applications. With RadGanttView, developers can import data from Microsoft Project to both visualize as well as manage data in their XAML applications. RadHeatMap is a matrix-like control that broadens data visualization capabilities by using color to encode values along two axes.

Windows Phone

RadControls for Windows Phone suite introduces more than 20 design Metro templates, including page and content templates, saving developers a significant amount of time. A Visual Studio wizard now assists developers in configuring an app's entire infrastructure, allowing them to focus solely on creating the app's core content. Other new features are: Pull to Refresh and Conversation View.

JustDecompile

With this release, JustDecompile unites with Reflexil, the popular open source Assembly Editor plug-in. Now, .NET assemblies loaded in JustDecompile can be directly manipulated, further expanding the power of Telerik's free decompiler for everyone.

TeamPulse

The company's agile project management solution, TeamPulse, introduces time tracking module aimed at teams looking for a simple, frictionless way to record project time. Users can log billable or non-billable time against tasks, user stories, and bugs or against generic tasks like meetings or support. TeamPulse Time Tracking also comes with a public API that allows integration with other systems.

Windows Forms

RadControls for WinForms features a brand new ChartView control that facilitates data visualization, achieving stunning visual effects. Telerik's suite for WinForms is also the first to introduce AutoCompleteBox, a highly-requested, tokenized control that brings to end-users the ability to easily fill-in tokens of text within a textbox, while benefitting from the built-in, auto-complete functionality.

Telerik OpenAccess ORM

Telerik's enterprise-grade ORM for .NET introduces a new Web Services Wizard. This new tool is capable of easily exposing the application data to client applications using various web services, yet without having developers write a single line of code

Q2 Webinar Week

Telerik's upcoming Q2 Webinar week is a 6-day event, packed with hour-long webinar sessions on the coolest new features shipping with the Q2 2012 release for each product. Release Webinar Week will be held from June 18-26.
