About

eXpandFramework is an independent open-source project and is not affiliated with Developer Express Inc.

eXpandFramework is a FREE extension for DevExpress-XAF and operates within the Microsoft Public License (Ms-PL).

The eXpandFramework organization consist of three projects. The main project, this one, the Standalone low dependency well tested and well documented Reactive.XAF and the XpandPwsh powershell module where you can find all you need for your everyday development tasks. The main project acts as a container to the standalone project. Eventually all modules of main project will be puzzled from the standalone modules.

The architecture is similar to XAF. We recommend you go through the Getting Started document to get the feeling on how to get the most out of it. Afterwards just install the modules you want and go through the blogs linked in the list below and feel free to post Issues.
