Kendo UI is HTML 5 and Jquery based framework and it helps you to create modern Web Applications. Kendo UI helps you
- In Data Binding
- In Animations
- With UI widgets like Grid and Chart
- With Drag and Drop API

Once you download you get these folders:
Navigate to the 'example' folder for examples of various widgets.
If you want to start developing web applications using KendoUI then you need to add the required file in your project.

<link href="styles/kendo.common.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<link href="styles/kendo.default.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<!--Then paste the following for Kendo UI Web scripts-->
<script src="Scripts/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/kendo.all.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="Scripts/Test.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<title>My Kendo UI Demo</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Kendo UI Demo</h1>
<input id="cricketerAutoComplete" />
</body>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#cricketerAutoComplete").kendoAutoComplete(
["Sachin",
"Dhoni",
"Saurabh",
"Rahul"]);
</script>
</html>When you run Test.htm in your browser, you should get this output:
In later posts I will get into detail about all widgets. I hope this post is useful. Thanks for reading.
