Best Practices for Ext.NET: version 2.x vs. version 1.x
Hello,
I've spent quite some time navigating through the forums looking how to best code a UI of a relatively large CRM-type application. For Ext.NET 1.3, I decided it would be rather difficult to use user controls, so I opted for the server control modular design route, as illustrated in this example:
https://examples1.ext.net/#/Combinat...s/Feed_Viewer/
In version 2 of Ext.NET, I've noticed that the same example has changed quite a bit Instead of being server control based, it is now user control based with the help of <ext:UserControlLoader>
https://examples2.ext.net/#/Combinat...s/Feed_Viewer/
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe a UserControlLoader was not available in 1.3. The questions I have:
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe a UserControlLoader was not available in 1.3. The questions I have:
- What do you believe is the best practice for modularizing complex UIs? (I've mentioned 2 possibilities above, if you have other ideas, please share! )
- For Ext.NET 2.0, are there any performance implications by going to user controls from server controls?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
