# Loading a subset of controls

_Application Developer notes_

## 5.2 Loading a subset of controls

This section contains additional information which we hope will be of value to Aurelia application developers using KendoUI bridge. \


You may often want to load only a subset of the components that KendoUI bridge provides. Instead of the requirement to load them all at the bootstrap time - controlled by the following code in `main.js` class:

```
...
.plugin('aurelia-kendoui-bridge', kendo => kendo.pro())
...
```

If instead, you wish to use only a subset of KendoUI components - say, kendoButton and kendoGrid, you should express that by using the following pattern;

```
...
.plugin('aurelia-kendoui-bridge', kendo => kendo.kendoButton().kendoGrid())
...
```

### Special functions

`.kendoTemplateSupport()` - will load the `<k-template>` custom element necessary for custom templates in a Kendo control.

`.useValueConverters();` - will load the value convertes around useful Kendo functions. [**This sample**](http://aurelia-ui-toolkits.github.io/demo-kendo/#/samples/valueconverters) demonstrates these value converters. \


### Mobile applications
