Diagramics Widget Development Framework

Diagramics Development Framework allows you to create graphic-intensive, data-driven, interactive custom controls for your ASP.NET web application.

For example: grids, scheduling tables, financial and data flow charts, toolbars, menus, list bars, trees, tabs, explorer bars, UI and editors, diagrams, animated plans, etc.

It also can be use to build presentation layer of a whole web application, like online email client, online scheduler, ticket reservation application, online CRM system, and so on.

Components of Diagramics Development Framework is fully integrated with Visual Studio .NET.

Diagramics Development Framework consists of:

• Diagramics Image Studio - graphical Visio-like editor to create and modify image templates. Image Studio allows you to create complex graphical shapes, images, charts, and diagrams, bind them to data from your data sources and assign interactivity to the graphical images - all in one designer-friendly, no-programming-required environment.
• Diagramics Image Server for ASP.NET - a set of components for ASP.NET for automatic generation of images and JavaScript code based on the instructions in the image templates. The Image Server also performs dynamic data binding with the data from your data sources.
• Digramics HTTP handler
  An asynchronous HTTP handler for ASP.NET for processing of HTTP requests from users' browsers.
• Digramics Rendering Engine
  A .NET component for automatically generation of images and JavaScript code, based on the instructions in the image templates. It also performs dynamic data binding with the data from your data sources.
• Diagramics Image Control
  A user control for ASP.NET, which, when embedded into an ASPX page, generates the necessary HTML code and JavaScript to support dynamically generated images.

Diagramics Development Framework was designed to greatly simplify UI development process. The following diagrams illustrate how Diagramics Development Framework works in various scenarios:

• Design phase:

web designer creates an image template and stores it to the local drive




• Deployment:

web desinger publishes image template to the web server




• Run-time:

In response to the browser request Diagramics Image Server generates image stream and appropriate JavaScript, This process is controled by the instructions stored in the image template. Diagramics Image Server also performs data-binding to the database or real-time data.
