jQuery UI Helpers - Getting Started(jqueryuihelpers.apphb.com)

submitted by attilaxattilax(34) 2 months, 12 days ago

jQuery UI Helpers is a set of HTML Helpers which help you to integrate jQuery UI into your ASP.NET MVC application. They have similar look and feel to the built in helpers (e.g. DatepickerFor), but also implement a fluent configuration API for advanced scenarios. The helpers only generate HTML elements with data-* attributes and unobtrusive JavaScript is used to do the required initializations. They also replace most of the complex string parameters with strongly typed arguments. This Getting Started page explains how to install and start using jQuery UI Helpers. read more...

A quick review of different UI frameworks(itaibh.blogspot.com)

submitted by itaibhitaibh(60) 3 years, 1 month ago

This post reviews several frameworks used for creating graphical user interfaces. I've decided to create such a review after noticing many programmers take a specific GUI framework for granted, as it is their automatic-choice-by-tool (i.e., they use what they're IDE let them, barely understanding the layers required to develop such a framework, and that there are alternatives they might have chosen if they had knew about). read more...

Well, never fear, free icons are here (wow that really rhymed). All kidding aside, most of us are not good at drawing images and icons, so we need some resources for these items. read more...
