The Ultimate UI Tools for ASP.NET WebForms & MVC

The A2 Framework

Here at ComponentOne we've embraced the AJAX lifestyle and built an all new framework around it. The new framework is rooted in Web Standards, developed with jQuery/AJAX, and extended in ASP.NET. That’s right; we've written this framework from the ground up to build UI controls for every flavor of Web development. Whether you are a jQuery guru or a WebForms master, this framework is geared for you.

The A2 Advantage

Build the Most Powerful Web Apps

A2 is the power of Microsoft’s ASP.NET AJAX extended and enhanced by our rich control architecture. Each control is optimized for its purpose in functionality, design, and interaction. With A2 you can turn a normal Web site into a modern Web app with rich themes, blazing performance, and interactive animations.
Design Rich UI's

Every control in A2 looks just as good as it performs. You can style your entire Web app in minutes with our FormDecorator control and built-in Visual Styles. We even have a GUI editor (Foxy Visual Style Designer) to help you build custom themes without writing a single line of CSS. Take your apps from boring to brilliant with A2's rich styling architecture.
Have Fun Coding

Our ASP.NET AJAX controls are built by Web Developers for Web Developers. We've taken all the basic and boring tasks out of UI development so you can focus on writing the code you love. We have fun using our controls and know you will too. Once you drop our controls in your site, you'll see how easy it is to enhance your performance, style, and functionality without writing tons of tedious code.
Best UX Packed Inside

Ever wonder why people love using Web sites like Netflix and Facebook? The answer is user experience (UX). All of our A2 controls have a variety of baked-in animation effects. By setting a single property on our controls, your end-users can enjoy a better UX with the smooth effects that take your AJAX interaction beyond Web 2.0.
Use Bleeding-edge Technology

A2 is beyond cutting-edge; it’s bleeding edge. We are constantly staying ahead of the curve so you get the latest and greatest technology in our controls. Add A2 controls to your Web site and you will be getting AJAX interaction, CSS themes, easing animations, JSON serialization, semantic XHTML, and standards compliance.
Get the Controls You Need

With a suite of over 35 controls, you are sure to get the control you need and the control you trust. Our commitment is to you, the developer. Take on the project you once thought impossible or the UI you once thought couldn’t be built. We want you to be unstoppable as a developer and strive to give you the quality of controls you need to accomplish anything.
It’s Extensible

Taking advantage of our client-side object model is a great way to easily enhance your site. If you're one of the many developers moving to client-side (JavaScript) development then you will love to use our controls. A2 controls all offer full functionality including, properties, functions, and events in JavaScript exactly as they do in C#. You will be able to write the same code in either environment - client/server - and save time by doing so. A2 controls also make it very easy to transition code from the server to the client. We can help you add AJAX performance to your Web app without rewriting any code or even learning JavaScript.
