Today’s inaugural developer screencast showcases a powerful addition to the CMS: the Framework API. Why introduce a new API when we have many already? The answer is simplicity. The Ektron.CMS.Framework follows a simple, consistent pattern that increases API discoverability.
If you follow or participate in the #ektron conversation on Twitter, you may have noticed tweets like this one: “New #ektron API is life changing for ektron developers.” See for yourself in this week’s Developer Screencast: Framework API – Lists.

P.S. Note to those using APIs outside of the Framework namespace: we’ll continue to support them for sometime, however, the Framework namespace is the home for APIs now and going forward. Over time we’ll expand what’s available through it!
