Microsoft AJAX Roadmap

Posted by Dave Smith On 9/28/2006 09:31:00 PM 0 comments

Scott Guthrie discusses the planned Microsoft AJAX roadmap, for providing improved "ATLAS" support for developers who want to pursue robust Asynchronous JavaScript and XML in their ASP.NET applications - it comes with multiple pieces, which have now been officially named:

  • Client-side support - Microsoft AJAX Library - consisting of JavaScript components to support any browser, and any backend system.
  • Server-side support - ASP.NET 2.0 AJAX Extensions
  • And a Controls toolbox - ASP.NET AJAX Control Toolkit - these are free, shared source controls and components.
These pieces are anticipated to be released before the holiday season, and will be followed by updates to Visual Studio which will provide many enhancements, including IntelliSense support for JavaScript, debugging and WYSIWYG support for these components.

We anticipate developing quite a few more AJAX-oriented applications, and are excited to see more tools to enable us in these pursuits...
