FloatingActionButton HtmlHelper Overview
The Telerik UI FloatingActionButton HtmlHelper for ASP.NET Core is a server-side wrapper for the Kendo UI FloatingActionButton widget.
The FloatingActionButton is a UI component that is tied to the most logical action that we expect from a user looking at a particular screen. For example, the most logical action for a user looking at the main screen of a mobile messaging app is to write a message. You can implement a FloatingActionButton that allows the user to compose a new message.
The FloatingActionButton floats in the application above other items, and its main action directly corresponds to the content on the screen. Apart from being a single button with a single action, the FloatingActionButton can also be configured to display additional related actions or speed dial actions.
The FloatingActionButton is part of Telerik UI for ASP.NET Core, a
professional grade UI library with 100+ components for building modern and feature-rich applications. To try it out sign up for a free 30-day trial.
