DevExpress NuGet Packages: T466415

Required

The DevExpress NuGet feed requires the following:

1. You must be a licensed customer
2. Only certain development platforms like ASP.NET are currently available
3. You should realize that this NuGet support is still only available as a 'beta', we are still working on the full implementation
4. You should be using version 16.2, since that version is all we support
5. Please read the section about "Limitations" before you switch to using NuGet packages

Limitations

The biggest limitation for NuGet packages is that by design they cannot affect the Visual Studio IDE. In other words, they are most convenient for development scenarios such as build servers.

What this means in practice is that we will not be providing DevExpress design-time assemblies via NuGet, and hence the DevExpress controls will not be available in the Visual Studio Toolbox if you use these new packages. You will still have to install the product via our installation program for those design-time experiences.
