TagHelpers are a new feature of ASP.NET Core (MVC 6) that allows preprocessing of HTML attributes with server side content. As Scott Hanselman demonstrates, TagHelpers provide cleaner code:
Open-Source MIT License
The new DevExtreme ASP.NET Core TagHelpers are provided on GitHub and Nuget with an MIT license. The source is open for you to view, fork, submit pull requests, etc.
To use the DevExtreme ASP.NET TagHelpers, you will need a DevExtreme license.
Preview Version
We're introducing the new DevExtreme ASP.NET TagHelpers as a preview version because:
- ASP.NET Core (MVC 6) has not been released. However, a second release candidate is available now.
- We're still perfecting and improving our TagHelpers.
However, the new DevExtreme ASP.NET TagHelpers have enough of a feature set that we'd love for you to test drive them and give us your feedback.
