Kentico CMS Controls make use of the object-oriented nature of the .NET Framework and many of them are derived either from standard ASP.NET controls or from each other. This means that controls with similar functionality have many common properties and learning to use them is made easier due to this fact.

 

The following categories and controls are available:
