Webix January 2019 Follow-up

The first month of 2019 has passed very quickly. We are happy to highlight for you our most significant news and interesting articles of January.

How to Сreate Multi-line Inputs for Homogeneous User Data

Very often you have to design web apps that collect a lot of monotonous data from users, e.g., information about their previous employment, skills, working hours, preferences, etc. This is when you face the time-consuming necessity to write code for many repeated input fields and maintain value processing logic.

Surely, you can solve this issue by allowing users to write anything their heart desires in a textarea. But such an approach has nothing to do with a user-friendly interface. Besides, processing the collected information can become a real headache in this case.

A better solution is creating one dynamic control which you’ll be able to apply multiple times to your complicated forms. Sounds interesting? Read on to learn how to do it.

Farewell to the Old Year, Farewell to the Old Code: Looking Forward to 7.0

Should auld acquaintance be forgot, and never brought to mind? If this is about old code, it definitely should. Old stuff, however useful and cool it used to be, should be left to rest in peace when it becomes no longer relevant. The time has almost come. With the next large release of Webix 7.0, which will happen in the following September, we will remove outdated and seldom used API from the library. Do not worry, because these are really old-fashioned things. There are modern alternative solutions, and the old ones will still be available on GitHub. You will find the details below.

If you want to create applications that let your users build interfaces themselves, read on and find out how you can achieve this with Webix. Building dynamic user interfaces can be partially achieved with Webix Dashboard. In some cases, like building forms, you can use Form Builder. This service uses AbsLayout as the area for UI building.
