We are discontinuing updates for WebReport on .NET Framework

From Dec. 1, we will stop releasing updates and providing technical support for FastReport.Web (.NET Framework). This library has been the core of reporting in many projects using Online Designer. These changes mean that FastReport.Web (Legacy) library, which is part of the FastReport.Net package, will no longer receive new bug fixes. This will allow us to focus on developing the most up-to-date technologies for generating reports.

What does this mean for you? 

We currently support 4 WEB reporting solutions:

• FastReport.Web (Legacy) for .NET Framework works exclusively in Windows projects and does not support the new FastReport Online Designer features. This is the library that will stop receiving updates in the future.
• FastReport.Web for Core / Skia is a cross-platform solution with an updated design and supports all Online Designer features.
• WebReport for Blazor Server includes reporting components for Blazor Server.
• WebReport for Blazor Wasm includes reporting components for Blazor WebAssembly, but has a more limited functionality for now.

You will also still have the option to build an Online Designer for FastReport.Web (Legacy). However, we strongly recommend that you use the new backend version in your projects for a better user experience.

What should you do? 

You don't need to purchase anything. Your version of FastReport has both versions of the backend. 

To migrate to FastReport.Web for Core/Blazor, you will need to build an Online Designer in builder with a different version of FastReport.Web or FastReport.Web.Skia backend. The work of the FastReport Online Designer in your projects will not change.

You will have access to the latest features that have been added since Core/Blazor backend version 2023.2, such as: Intellisense when editing report code, RichText component, MSChart support, creating and editing query parameters for data sources, custom SQL queries and much more.
