On my current project, we are using Kendo UI for heavy data grids and enyo for DOM/Object/MVVM/Event management. Enyo's touch is so light that it doesn't interfere with Kendo at all. In fact, we dispatch some of the Kendo events to enyo for enyo to handle. Unlike DOM heavy libraries like Angular that kill Kendo use, enyo easily supports Kendo.
Has the enyo team considered partnering with the Kendo UI group to build some cross-framework wrappers/bridges? I think it would be a great partnership for both sides.

How to reuse Kendo "components"?
Do you create/derive Enyo kinds that use Kendo elements as implementation detail?
Do you have any code samples you could share to illustrate your use ?
Say - you want to create an Excel like app: Use Kendo grids for displaying the table of cells. Define some Enyo kind "sheet" that represents one Excel sheet. So you have several such Enyo kind "sheet" instances to have all the Excel sheets and you add some app menu with additional Enyo controls.
Enyo could be set to listen for the click event from the Kendo grid via the dispatch function. When the click occurs, Enyo could replace the current view with the other sheet and provide the data source for the new grid. Then, kendo would reload its data source using the enyo provided one to show the next grid.
I'll see if I can find any good examples, or put something together.
Would be great to see such examples.
Also what would work better with Kendo grids instead of using the new Enyo DataGridList ? It displays at http://nightly.enyojs.com/latest/sampler. Unfortunately the source code for the DataGridList example still does not display at the sampler (ENYO-3309).
Now the nightly sampler works again with source view and the jsfiddle also works well.
THANKS !!!
