A new release of the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit, v16.1, is now available. We've included new features and several bug fixes.
One Year Anniversary
Today marks the one year anniversary since DevExpress released the first version of the updated ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit:
March 2015 - Announcing the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit - v15.1
And it has been one and half years since we took over maintenance (and care) of the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit:
September 2014 - LONG LIVE The Ajax Control Toolkit - Open Source and now maintained by DevExpress
As we continue to fix and improve the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit, we would like to encourage more developer interaction with this open-source library. So it's time to make a major move to help the library:
Hello Github, Goodbye CodePlex
The ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit respository has now officially moved from CodePlex to Github.
https://github.com/DevExpress/AjaxControlToolkit/
We chose Github because it is a great community of open-source developers and projects. And because the ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit is an open-source project, we would love to have more developers get involved and submit their code.
If you have never used GitHub then take a look at their free great getting started guide: GitHub Bootcamp
Documentation
The documentation has been ported and is now hosted on GitHub as well:
