Modern, Mobile, & Lightning-fast!

It may be the middle of summer, but you wouldn't know it at Telerik. We have been busy cranking out new releases and updates, most recently yesterday's Q2 2013 Kendo UI release. Thousands of people joined us for the live online keynote to check out the latest additions to Kendo UI, which include the much requested Scheduler widget and a cool new "flat UI" theme. If you missed the live event, everything has been recorded and published to YouTube. I think you're really going to love what we've delivered!

Meanwhile, we've shipped some really exciting updates in one of our newest products, Icenium. If you're still not familiar, Icenium is an amazing tool for simplifying cross-platform hybrid mobile development. You focus on building your app, we handle all of the SDK configuration and mobile app packaging in the cloud. With our latest updates, we are proud to be the first tool to support user uploaded custom Cordova plugins! This is huge. You can now use any Cordova plugin with Icenium, giving you unlimited access to native mobile device APIs and capabilities. Give it a try.

Finally, Icenium Everlive, our new Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) solution, has been updated, too. Icenium Everlive now supports both "social authentication" (users can authenticate to your app using their existing social media credentials) and push notifications! Combined with the power of Icenium and Kendo UI, you can build some amazing apps in the time that it will take other developers just to setup a new server.

No matter what platform or form factor your software is targeting today, Telerik has the tools that continue to maximize your developer productivity. We hope you enjoy these updates and have fun building new apps and enhancing the apps already in your portfolio!

Porting an Enterprise App to HTML5 from Silverlight with Kendo UI

Porting an Enterprise App to HTML5 from Silverlight with Kendo UI

Many experts say that you shouldn't rewrite an enterprise app from one platform to another, but we did it, successfully. With the latest version of our agile project management tool TeamPulse we introduced a stunning new HTML5 interface built from the ground up using our own Kendo UI controls and wrappers. We chose Kendo UI for the project not only because of the breadth of the suite but also because at Telerik we strongly believe that dogfooding guarantees that we deliver best-of-breed products to our customers.
