A critical turning point where DevExpress fully transitioned to its own Drawing graphics library , replacing System.Drawing.Common . This allowed Blazor and Reporting tools to run natively on Linux, Mac, and Android .

These versions focused on .NET Core parity, bringing the powerful WinForms and WPF designers into the modern .NET ecosystem.

Simultaneously, as ASP.NET Web Forms gained traction as Microsoft’s answer to stateful web development, DevExpress launched its suite. These early v2004–v2007 releases mimicked the desktop paradigm on the web, using heavy postbacks and ViewState. While modern developers wince at this architecture, for the mid-2000s enterprise developer, it was a miracle: a grid that could sort, filter, and page just like its WinForms sibling, without writing reams of JavaScript.
