What is NOV？

Nevron Open Vision is a Cross-Platform Presentation Layer based on .NET. It aims to provide a consistent, modern and powerful set of widgets and heavy components, to help you streamline the creation of advanced and portable applications and user interfaces. It aims to run on all major Operating Systems and integrate with already existing .NET-based presentation layers. 

Nevron Open Vision is inspired by Open Standards related to Graphics, Text Processing, Document Organization, Styling, User Interfaces and other. This ensures the long life-cycle of the applications and user interfaces that are built with it. 

NOV implements many W3C specifications, including Document Object Model (DOM), Cascade Style Sheets (CSS) and other. In fact the NOV presentation layer includes one of the few GUI toolkits, which are styled with CSS. 

NOV implements the complete Text-Processing stack, which aligns Nevron with companies like Microsoft, Apple and Adobe as one of the few companies worldwide that have an Advanced Typography of their own. Nevron is however the only company in the World that provides Advanced Typography in 100% managed code! This allows us to guarantee you 100% identical text quality and text processing speed in all Operating Systems and Environments. 

NOV integrates with already existing presentation layers, thus allowing the gradual porting of existing presentation layer code. It is now never too late to make your Presentation Layer portable.

Single Code Base To achieve ultimate portability in all .NET runtimes and environments, NOV implements a large closed ecosystem of features and services related to the presentation layer. This aims to ensure that its Single Code Base is build upon solid foundations, that have a very small touch-base even with the specific native CLRs, for which NOV is compiled.  The NOV Single Code Base is written in C#. Yet however C# itself has many variations under the different CLRs. That is why the NOV Single Code Base is written in a specific subset of the C# language that we call Portable C#. The NOV Single Code Base is assembled by files that are all written in Portable C#.  The NOV Single Code Base does not have any direct dependencies on native APIs.  The NOV Single Code Base can successfully run on all .NET based runtimes and environments. Currently the NOV framework and modules have a compiled version (.dll) for the following environments:  Windows Silverlight Android MacOS iOS

Native Apps Making a portable .NET framework is one thing, but making a portable Presentation Layer framework means that this framework needs to interoperate with the native Operating System and its Presentation Layer Environment in order to integrate with it. NOV achieves that with the help of Hosts, which are native for the target integration platform. NOV Hosts differ from traditional portable GUI hosts in the fact that they virtualize essential Presentation Layer features, when such are not present in the target integration platform.  The NOV Hosts virtualization feature allows the authoring of applications that transparently use the native Operating System features when that is possible and transparently virtualize these features when they are not present in the respective environment. This allows you to build portable native apps, which are not limited in features, just for the sake of portability. On feature limited/restricted environments this allows you to make use of GUI features that are typically unavailable.  For example - NOV Hosts feature a virtualized Windows Manager. This allows for NOV to actually display native Windows, when NOV runs under Microsoft Windows or Mac OS and displays emulated Windows when it runs in Silverlight or Android for example. From a developer point of view however you simply open and close NOV Windows – your code remains the same in all NOV supported environments. The same virtualization features are implemented for many other aspects of the presentation layer, such as graphics, clipboard, drag-and-drop, cursors, tooltips, keyboard, mouse etc.  Currently implemented are Hosts for the following Presentation Layers: Windows Forms Windows Presentation Foundation Silverlight We are working on Hosts for the following additional Presentation Layers: Android MacOS iOS WinRT That said, we can safely say that NOV is indeed the new face of .NET – single code base, powerful features, great native apps – this all is now possible with NOV.
