Progress Sets the Standard for Application Development with Generative AI Integration, Enhanced Design System Capabilities and Accessible Data Visualization
29 Mai 2024 - 3:00PM
Progress (Nasdaq: PRGS), the trusted provider of infrastructure
software, today announced the latest release of Progress® Telerik®
and Progress® Kendo UI®, the most powerful .NET and JavaScript UI
libraries and tools for application development. Today’s release
delivers artificial intelligence (AI) prompts to application
interfaces, design-to-code productivity, accessibility features and
a series of new UI components, including the first-to-market Blazor
Spreadsheet component.
“Businesses are rapidly adapting their products to take
advantage of AI, and developers have to respond quickly to this new
opportunity,” said Loren Jarrett, EVP & GM, Digital Experience,
Progress. “With this latest release, we make it easy for developers
to include Gen AI prompts in their apps and embed AI for a better
UX in addition to advanced design-to-code automation and
accessibility features. The world is moving quickly, and we are
empowering developers to stay ahead of the game.”
What’s new in Q2 2024:
UI Components for Generative AI Integration The
new AI Prompt component, available across all Telerik and Kendo UI
libraries, enables the creation of quality content, messages and
documents, as well as fast access to information through in-UI
searches. To reduce the learning curve, AI integration demos in
Telerik and Kendo UI libraries for components such as TextBox and
Spreadsheet help developers discover new ways to include AI-powered
interactions within their digital experiences.
Accelerated Design-to-Production WorkflowsWhile
design systems are a must for design consistency, the translation
of design to code often causes issues and delays in production
time. With today’s release, Progress improves the
designer-to-developer handoff with enhanced Figma UI Kits, improved
color system themes and enriched design system documentation.
Developers can further enable brand consistency and meet app
standardization requirements through the newly introduced, unified
rendering across the different JavaScript and .NET web frameworks
and can leverage more than 600 component-specific theme variables,
as well as a smart CSS code editor in Progress® ThemeBuilder℠ cloud
application.
Next-Level Accessibility and Inclusivity Recent
global research commissioned by Progress shows that 76% of
developers consider building human-centric applications – with
accessibility at the core – more important than it was two years
ago. To help them advance their efforts and address users’ specific
needs, the Telerik and Kendo UI libraries are compliant with
Section 508, WCAG 2.2 and WAI Aria. In addition, all web chart
components provide built-in accessibility and keyboard navigation
to make data visualizations accessible to all.
Progress also released new capabilities for embedded data-driven
experiences with reporting and visualization features,
modernization of legacy projects with support for complex migration
scenarios and support for .NET 9 Preview.
