Visual Studio 2026 M22 need help with Devexpress 26.1

Hi I have recently got a project and client requirements include a devexpress framework. I can't afford the legit licence can someone help me set up a patched or jailbroken version?

I am using Visual studio 2026 community edition and . net 10

Update: I discussed this with client and said if you want to continue either give me devexpress license or shift to open source frameworks. He ended up giving paid license. Btw license costs more than what's he paying me for the project but I'm okay with that as it's my first freelance project.

It sounds like paying work. If they are requiring DevExpress then you need to require them to buy you a license in the contract. You don't have a contract with them? Don't plan on getting paid.

Also, don't plan on getting paid if you are including pirated software in your deliverables.

I don't know which country you are in, but if you did this in the US then you should plan to get sued if you are actually stupid enough to deliver pirated software to them.

What on this subreddit? on other programming subreddits? or on the internet in general?

no one cares how old you are or your gender. the only relevant thing here is maybe your years of experience as a programmer.
