Intro, Comparision to AngularJS
Saves the day.
Which Way to Go?
Lots
of JavaScript frameworks for UI development available
No standard JavaScript library
jQuery is a de-facto standard and basis for nearly all other UI frameworks
Open
source or commercial?
Enter
Telerik Kendo UI
Will AngularJS be the winner?
Another JavaScript UI Framework
Just a bunch of nice controls?
Should you consider it?
Lets
talk about this option
Note that this presentation assumes that you are somewhat familiar with AngularJS and you want to know the differences to Kendo UI.
Introducing Kendo UI
Whats in the box?
Kendo UI Facts
Kendo
UI is much more than just controls
End-to-end framework for web and mobile development based on HTML/JavaScript
Overlapping with AngularJS
Part of The Telerik Platform
Previously
commercial, now partly open source
Kendo UI Core is open source
Commercial license Kendo UI Pro available
Core

Kendo UI vs. AngularJS
Comparison
The Obvious
AngularJS
is 100% open source, Kendo UI is not
Only Kendo UI Core is open source
In complex project you will probably need the Pro version
Kendo
UI has powerful built-in controls
Telerik has a long and successful track record concerning controls
For AngularJS you need companion projects AngularUI/Mobile Angular UI for controls
AngularJS
is widely used
Huge user base for AngularJS
Dedicated AngularJS support in latest updates of Microsoft Visual Studio
Programming Differences
Different
approaches for MV*
AngularJS: Compare controller scope and detect changes
Kendo UI: ObservableObject base class
Entirely
different data binding mechanisms
Different
routing system for SPAs
AngularJS: $route, $location, etc.
Kendo UI: kendo.Router
Whats Unique in AngularJS compared to Kendo UI
Powerful
built-in dependency injection
Modules
for server communication
Controllers, factories, services, values, etc.
$http, $resource, etc.; Kendo UI relies on jQuery
Promise
API
$q; Kendo UI relies on jQuery
Framework
for building custom HTML directives
Whats Unique in Kendo UI compared to AngularJS
Controls,
Controls, Controls
Powerful
OData support
Even for complex data binding scenarios (e.g. server-side filtering with AutoComplete)
Typescript
type definition provided by vendor
AngularJS: DefinitelyTyped, maintained by community
Kendo UI
Routing (GitHub)
Data Binding with OData
support (GitHub)
MVVM (GitHub)
With TypeScript (GitHub)
Demo
Where to Go?
How to choose?
Where to Go?
Favor
Angular if you want 100% open source
Favor
Kendo UI if you primarily need powerful controls
Consider Kendo UI especially in commercial projects where you need pro support
You get a web development framework, too
Consider using OData for your REST API
Coexistence?
Possible, but
be prepared for some fiddling around with integration issues
