Open Source WinForm Controls

Question

Is anyone aware of open source WinForm controls similar to what Infragistics or Telerik might offer? I'm looking for the standard controls like edit controls, grid etc. But I also want a tab like control and a slideout control would be nice too.

Thanks

Answer 1

Have you searched through any sites hosting open source projects, like SourceForge or GitHub?

They are out there if you do some digging, albeit spread out and inconsistent. I used a file tree that I found on Code Project once although like Hans says, the free option is not always a good idea if you need a good quality control - we ended up using Syncfusion.
