DevExpress ASP.NET MVC Controls are a collection of server‑side UI components designed for applications built with the ASP.NET MVC framework. They integrate with MVC patterns such as controllers, views, and strongly typed models. The controls focus on structured data presentation, user input, navigation, and reporting, while following the MVC separation of concerns. Rendering is performed on the server, with client‑side scripts used to support interactive behavior.
