DevExpress has released the next version of the
DevExtreme product, which integrates the
PhoneJS ,
ChartJS frameworks , as well as Microsoft Visual Studio integration tools that simplify the creation of applications, the design of their forms and the assembly of packages for various mobile platforms.

In
version 13.1.8 , the
Tizen operating system has been
added to the line of supported mobile platforms.
Creating a new application or adding support for the Tizen platform to an application already written is very simple. We saw this with the example of the
TipCalculator application.
We opened a project in Microsoft Visual Studio. Then they added to the index.html file links to the Tizen themes that came with the product. DevExpress developed two sets of styles: light and dark themes - similar to Tizen themes. You need to connect only one style. We chose the dark:

Previously, we added these files to the css directory of the project. In the template of new projects there are already these files and links to them.
Next, we launched a debugging application. Debugging in DevExtreme takes place in the simulator, where simulation and Tizen devices are available.

After debugging for the release of the finished application, it remains only to assemble the installation package for Tizen. DevExtreme makes it easy to build a .wgt package, ready to be installed on a real device or uploaded to the
Tizen Store . All this is done with a few mouse clicks in the
Build Native Package wizard.
And here are the photos of the application running on a real device (albeit only available for developers so far):

Now developing applications for Tizen has become even easier. Hurry up to take part in contests:
-
Messenger Vkontakte for Tizen with a prize fund of 3 million rubles .
-
Tizen App Challenge with a prize fund of more than 4 million dollars .
Best wishes,
Tizen Eva Group
