Summary

In this episode, we talk with Sam Basu, Kathryn Grayson Nanz, and Kiril to explore Kendo UI and Kendo React. We discuss the evolution of UI libraries, the engineering behind Kendo's components, and the importance of accessibility in modern applications. The conversation delves into the unique offerings of Kendo React, particularly its data grid and virtualization techniques, as well as the design considerations that enhance user experience.

The introduction of the Theme Builder is highlighted as a tool that bridges the gap between design and development, allowing for seamless collaboration and customization. We also cover the importance of collaboration between designers and developers, the significance of design tokens, and the incremental adoption of Kendo React in existing applications.
