It’s about time to prepare your lighter clothing and sunglasses! Welcome the long-awaited spring! Let’s say goodbye to winter and recall the most important news and articles of February. Undoubtedly, the biggest event for our team was the release of Webix 6.2.

Webix has made yet another step to perfection. In version 6.2, you will find stylish tooltips for any part of the app and the update for server proxies that will help you load and save data more conveniently. Your users will have a visual export of charts to PDF and better drag-n-drop in data components. And we have other good news: Webix Jet 2.0 is out. You will find more goodies below.

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.

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.

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 With the next large release of Webix 7.0, which will happen in the following September, we will remove outdated and seldom used API from the library.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.

Webix team brings good news that will warm you during cold autumn days. Webix 6.1 presents a new widget for adding comments, the updated Kanban and ultimate skin support for complex widgets. Read on to find out more.

It’s been about three weeks since our latest Webix release. We are very happy to have received so much feedback from our users. Among messages and comments there are questions concerning migration to Webix 6.0, and one of the popular issues is still the “Where have all the icons gone?” question. That is why I decided to deal with this issue individually and share the salvation guide.

The long-awaited day has come: Webix 6.0 is here. And it hasn’t arrived quietly, so fasten your seatbelts and prepare for most dramatic changes. Webix now has a new default material skin. You can build your own Webix pack only with the widgets you need.
