Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC

Workflow Diagram

New feature

The Diagram component is set to receive a major upgrade focused on creating modern workflow diagrams. This enhancement will introduce a rich collection of out-of-the-box workflow shapes, designed to streamline the creation of process flows and business logic diagrams. Alongside these new shapes, the update will include several usability and performance improvements aimed at modernizing the component’s design and interactivity, making it easier and more intuitive for developers to build rich, dynamic diagramming experiences.

AI Prompt Component Improvements

New feature

The AI Prompt component will be enhanced with new capabilities aimed at improving user interaction and output control. A new Response Formatting feature will introduce structured output handling through a set of customizable events, enabling seamless integration with third-party libraries for tailored response presentation. Additionally, the component will integrate with the upcoming Speech-to-Text module, allowing users to input prompts via voice for a more natural and accessible experience. A Stop Response feature will also be introduced within the text area, giving users the ability to interrupt response generation in real time, offering greater control and responsiveness during AI interactions.

 

Inline AI Prompt Component

New component

Adding a brand-new Inline AI Prompt component will enable developers to embed lightweight, context-aware AI interactions directly within forms, editors, and data grids. This component provides a seamless input experience where users can invoke AI suggestions inline, without disrupting their workflow, using predefined triggers or natural language prompts. Developers will benefit from flexible API integration with any LLM backend and customizable prompt templates. Designed for fast rendering and a low memory footprint, this component helps accelerate productivity features such as smart autocompletion, contextual explanations, content rewriting, fixing grammar, translating text, polishing formatting, and much more inside any business application.

 

Chat Component Revamp

New feature

As AI-driven interactions become the norm, we’re advancing our Chat Component to support the next generation of real-time, intelligent communication. This revamp introduces a modernized design and key feature upgrades that enable both human-to-human and human-to-AI interactions through a flexible and extensible chat interface. New enhancements include predefined templates for in-chat attachments, structured messages and attachment actions, improved link and message styling, and a redesigned header element that centralizes chat context and navigation. The message input area now supports a more expressive TextArea with built-in action adornments like emoji or file upload. Additionally, speech-to-text integration makes the chat experience more accessible.

For AI use cases, the new Prompt Mode optimizes LLM-based conversations, offering support for contextual memory through events, formatted AI responses (e.g., code, markdown, HTML), response interruption via a stop button, token tracking, and styled quick suggestions for AI prompts like “Summarize” or “Fix grammar.”

 

Introducing Fluent 2

Improvement

We’re excited to announce the upgrade of our Fluent theme to Fluent 2, bringing a refreshed, modern design language that aligns with Microsoft's latest Fluent design system. Fluent 2 introduces a cleaner aesthetic with softer corners, improved typography, and consistent padding, all aimed at enhancing usability and visual clarity. This update ensures better accessibility, dark mode fidelity, and seamless integration with Microsoft's ecosystem of apps. By adopting Fluent 2, our UI components now deliver a more intuitive, elegant, and future-proof user experience—empowering developers to build interfaces that feel native to Windows 11 and beyond.

 

Adaptiveness of ASP.NET MVC UI Components

Improvement

We continue our efforts to improve the adaptive and responsive behavior of our components. In our short-term plans, we will enhance the Data Grid, Toolbar, Pager, ColorPicker and TabStrip UI components so that their design and UX is seamless regardless of the device they are displayed.

Multiple Components Enhancements

New feature
We closely monitor your suggestions, and based on your feedback, we will implement gradual improvements to our existing components. Keep an eye on future improvements to the Grid, Scheduler, Chart, TabStrip, Menu components, and many others.

 

ASP.NET MVC Accessibility Improvements

Improvement

In our upcoming 2025 releases, we will continue with our efforts to improve the overall accessibility of Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC components, ensuring the highest level of compliance with WAI-ARIA, Section 508, and the latest WCAG standards.
