We're excited to announce the return of a beloved challenged!

Running through September 28, our latest KendoReact Free Components Challenge invites you to explore KendoReact's free UI components and discover how their AI tools can accelerate your workflow.

With 50+ free components available, you'll have everything you need to build a polished, high-performing and accessible application.

We hope you give it a try!

Our Prompt

Build Without Boundaries

For this challenge, what you build is entirely up to you as long as you build a React app of your choice that utilizes at least 10 free KendoReact UI components. Show us your creativity and demonstrate the versatility of KendoReact's component library!

Additional Prize Categories

In addition or our overall prompt, submissions may qualify for two additional prize categories:

  • Code Smarter, Not Harder: Use the KendoReact AI Coding Assistant to help build part (or all) of your app. Start a 30-day free trial (no credit card required) and make sure to describe where and how you used the AI Coding Assistant in your submission!

  • RAGs to Riches: There's a brand new member of the Progress family: Nuclia! This RAG-as-a-service tool makes deploying Agentic RAG a breeze. Include it in your app (requires starting a 14-day trial, no credit card required), share your experience, and qualify for this additional prize category!

Prizes

We'll select one overall prompt winner and a winner for each additional prize category.

Each winner will receive:

All Participants with a valid submission will receive a completion badge on their DEV profile.
