All Things Lyte

After a long hibernation, we are back with a new version of LyteRAD. 

A lot has happened over the years. LyteRAD now creates rich ajax enabled web applications. Infact our new product Abiki is based completely on LyteRAD platform. This version comes with a cool blue look and feel, many enhancements to the user interface and many more fixes. Do give it a spin you can download the latest version from our download section. You can view the complete list of enhancements in our forums.

A minor release with many bug fixes and a few enhancements. You will now be able to store NULL values in numeric fields if appropriate.
