Company Newsletter - May 11, 2012

We’ve just released our latest version of Essential Studio 2012. With this, our Volume 2 release, we’ve added over 90 new features and hundreds of lines of code. Every quarter we produce a comprehensive volume of tested and dependable components—more than anyone else, faster than anyone else.

With this release, we held true to our strong commitment to ASP.NET MVC as the platform of choice for Web and mobile development. Adding sub-gauges, auto-suggest functionality, and customizable waiting indicators(to name just a few features), we’ve increased our MVC controls for Web and mobile development, making our ASP.NET MVC offering the largest on the market.

Here are other highlights from Essential Studio 2012 Volume 2:

Project Wizard for ASP.NET MVC
New Pivot Grid for Windows Forms
Support for Quartet FS ActivePivot Engine

As a provider of .NET components, Syncfusion is in the exciting, but challenging, position of always being on the cutting edge. Whenever platforms or tools ship out of Microsoft, which seems to be about every other week these days, we have to educate ourselves quickly.

A lot of information on application development is available, but that information is becoming harder to digest. More and more books are being published, even on topics that are relatively new; one aspect that continues to frustrate us is the inability to find technology books that offer a concise overview.

As with everyone who has a job to do and customers to serve, we find this quite aggravating.

Let’s start with an old-fashioned definition, shall we? According to Wikipedia, “HTML5 is a markup language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web”. It was created as an open format unified markup language that can be written in either “XHTML or HTML syntax”.

Started in 2007, it’s clear that HTML5 is still an emerging specification and the W3C’s HTML5 Working Group has announced their intention to finalize HTM5 and make it fully interoperable by July 2014.

HTML5 really came to prominence in the mainstream media when Apple CEO Steve Jobs took a swipe at Adobe’s Flash technology in a letter titled Thoughts on Flash: “Flash is no longer necessary to watch video or consume any kind of web content” and “new open standards created in the mobile era, such as HTML5, will win”.
