This year we have worked out a new concept of complex widgets and have already released the new ones: File Manager, Document Manager, Query, and User Manager. They were built from scratch as fully configurable Webix Jet app modules, which makes them flexible, powerful… and yet not very easy to master regarding the code. However once you grasp the concept, it opens great opportunities.

Let’s explore the technical features of the new widgets and learn of all the benefits of the Jet-based approach.

В этом году мы разработали новую концепцию создания комплексных виджетов и
реализовали её на нескольких примерах: File Manager, Document Manager, Query и
User Manager. Каждый из этих комплексных виджетов написан как Webix Jet
приложение, что делает их гибкими, настраиваемыми и многофункциональными.
Исходный код такого приложения не очень прост в освоении, но как только вы
поймёте общую идею, перед вами откроется широкий спектр возможностей.

Давайте познакомимся с основными возможностями новых виджетов и узнаем
преимущества Jet-подхода.

We are happy to announce the release of Webix 7.2 and Webix File Manager 7.2. Webix 7.2 includes major updates for the Filter widget, multiple sorting for Datatable, date formats and formulas for Spreadsheet and improved export to PDF. File Manager has been redesigned.

Встречайте Webix 7.0 и новые приложения для обучения и прототипирования. Мы добавили в библиотеку новый виджет для отображения истории изменений, возможность блокировать опции виджетов и списков и возможность добавлять текстовым полям выпадающие списки для автоподстановки.

Мы также выпустили удобные инструменты для пользователей: low-code платформу UI Designer для прототипирования интерфейсов и новые Webix Tutorials, которые будут полезны как новичкам, так и бывалым пользователям. Подробнее читайте в статье.

Working with dependent data sources with Webix Datatable became more convenient with Webix 6.3+. You can use options to connect several data sources and set dropdown lists for editors and filters. I will share with you the tweaks and benefits that might not seem obvious from first glance.
