DevExpress.Data NuGet Package

The DevExpress.Data package contains the platform-independent data engine used across DevExpress WinForms, WPF, ASP.NET, and Blazor components. The package includes DevExpress criteria language, the DevExpress data processing engine, high-performance server-side data modes, and more.

Key Features

• DevExpress criteria language: build, parse, and evaluate filter expressions independently of any specific data source.
• DevExpress data processing engine: sort, group, filter operations, and summary calculation over in-memory and bound lists.
• High-performance data access modes: Server Mode and Instant Feedback Mode for binding to large data sets (EF, LINQ, OData, WCF).
• Shared infrastructure for data-aware UI: input masks, the expression/query builder editor model, and end-user filtering.
