Ignite UI™ is the most powerful set of high performance user experience controls and components for development of modern apps in HTML5, JavaScript or ASP.NET MVC. If you are building responsive web apps that target the desktop and mobile, or just hybrid mobile apps, Ignite UI can get you there. We are continuing to invest in rich line-of-business scenarios for the desktop browser, while ensuring the touch experiences and mobility are top of mind in our UX process for new controls and control enhancements.   

New Editors

One of our main goals with this release was to provide you with more robust, feature rich and excellent performing editor widgets. Our editor components offer a lot of functionality, backed by a significant amount of code. This latest release marked another major development campaign for the editor suite, since our dev teams re-architected all editors to optimize their usability and also added a new component – the Checkbox widget.

    • igEditors
  • igCheckboxEditor

 

    • igTextEditor
    • igNumericEditor
  • igPercentEditor

  • igCurrencyEditor

  • igMaskEditor

  • igDateEditor

  • igDatePicker

    igNotifier

    The igNotifier component is an extension of the popover component, which specializes in providing the end user with notification information. There are three predefined states:

    • Success
    • Warning
    • Error

     

    The component supports popover mode, as well as simple inline-style messaging. In addition to this, there is automatic pairing with editor widgets to allow detection or erroneous input which is outside the predefined range.

     

     

              
           

      igValidator

      The new Validation component allows flexible validation on an array of Ignite UI components, as well as standard input form elements. The mechanism uses the Notification component capabilities to both handle the validation process and display flexible and visually appealing notifications to the end user.

      IgniteUI Visual Studio MVC Scaffolder

                 

        We release a brand new Scaffolder for Ignite UI widgets. With this we boost developer productivity greatly by providing code generation and templates to quickly target standard data scenarios like creating, reading, updating and deleting data. With a few clicks you can completely configure a Grid, generate a controller and save time on manual coding. Configuring other widgets as HierarchicalGrid, TreeGrid, Data Chart and others are already in the works.
