Telerik officially ships UI for iOS ListView, now ready and out of Beta.
At the end ofFebruary we released ListView for iOS. This control is theone-stop shop for your list-related needs like the need for multiple columns, load on demand, animations. It was almost feature complete, and it still needed some polishing, so we added the Beta tag to itback then. This polishing is already done, and we have just releaseda new version of UI for iOS which introduces the official version of ListView for iOS.

Taking advantage of the Embedded Frameworks
Since iOS 8 Apple allow you toplug in at various places of the iOS and fill them withyour own content. Such places are the Today section of the Notification Center, the Share widget, the Keyboard. The content that you plug should either be apartof the extension itself, or, if it comes from a 3rd party library, this library should come in the form of an embedded framework.
