In addition, the release provides new tooling for faster desktop development, such as enhanced document processing libraries and data components across all desktop suites.
Kendo UI for Angular RC
Today Progress announces the release
candidate of Progress
Kendo UI® for Angular, a suite of high performance Angular 2 UI
components for building native Angular web applications. Each component
has been engineered natively for Angular 2, with each feature carefully
aligned to the framework guidelines and without any jQuery dependencies.
In addition to existing UI widgets initially shipped in beta that are now in release candidate stage, the Kendo UI for Angular RC suite includes four new components: MaskedTextBox, NumericTextBox, AutoComplete and MultiSelect. It also offers support for ahead-of-time compilation, universal rendering and tree shaking as well as grid grouping and editing. The Kendo UI for Angular RC suite is now included as part of Kendo UI Professional, Kendo UI Complete and Telerik DevCraft bundles.
Kendo UI for jQuery
The Kendo UI for jQuery suite now
provides support and performance enhancements for jQuery 3, including
Grid and Spreadsheet widget improvements. Adding to the more than 70 UI
components that deliver everything developers need to build beautiful
and responsive apps in half the time, all Kendo UI for jQuery components
work seamlessly with Angular and support Angular directives.

As announced previously,
based on our long-standing commitment to Microsoft, the Telerik DevCraft
suite is fully compatible with Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 RC, enabling
developers to create high-performance and scalable web, mobile and
desktop applications for any Microsoft platform or device. Developers
can take advantage of the new benefits of Visual Studio while continuing
to enjoy productivity gains enabled by Telerik UI controls for all major
Microsoft developer platforms.
