Krypton used to be a purchase item, but now it's displayed on Github for personal and commercial projects.
https://github.com/ComponentFactory/Krypton
I'm using Visual Studio 2012 and the components seems to work in this version as I quote:
Full source code for all the controls and components is included along with Visual Studio project and solution files for 2005, 2008 and 2010 versions of Visual Studio. If you are using a newer version of Visual Studio you can still load the solutions and it will compile just fine.
I have download the github files and I have a bunch of dll files. I have added those dll files into my Visual Studio Toolbox.
What happens is that the items are added successfull but when I drag and drop them into the form they do not appear. I have tried the Buttons, DataGridViews, etc, none of them work.
The project shows no error when I run..what am I missing?

Solved.
1) Inherit the KryptonForm
public partial class Form1 : KryptonForm
2) Add the Design.dll library as reference and not as Toolbox item
