WEBIX BLOG

We are happy to introduce Webix 4.1 UI library with a Gage widget, Rich Text Editor control, and upgrades for Charts widget. This release of Webix JavaScript library will help you to solve the task of displaying dynamic data. You can create a dashboard for monitoring the performance of several resources and even a complex control panel like in a vehicle or weather station. For more information check our previous updates: minor Webix 3.4 and major Webix 4.0.

Web dashboards are in high demand today as they have proven to be a helpful tool for at-a-glance analysis of complex data together with its laconic visual presentation. Although dashboards originated from desktop applications web environment requires something not typical for them – responsiveness. In this article we will find out what Webix has already issued to meet this requirement and build our own flexible web dashboard.

Developers don’t like monotonous coding. But even with a number of tools and frameworks one often has to configure big forms by hand. Webix offers to exclude this task from your daily routine with the help of a custom Form Editor tool which was built totally on Webix public API.

September 27 is the most important day of the year for Webix community — as we have recently announced, it is the date of Webix 4.0 release.

We are happy to announce the upcoming major Webix 4.0 release with 4 remarkable updates that you will definitely appreciate: accessibility, Angular 2 compatibility, updated SpreadSheet, new widget, control and improvements.

Hey all! Can you already smell the autumn in the air? Alas, the fruitful summer gradually comes to an end, and it’s time to receive a Bachelor’s degree in Webix 🙂 Today I suggest you to brush up your knowledge of data components by uncovering one of the base concepts – DataStore. In the article below you will learn what is hidden behind visual presentation and may pick useful snippets for working with data.

Hey guys!

We are so glad to present our new Webix 3.4 update today! Hope you are still fresh and rested after the weekend and ready to test something new, because definitely we have a bunch of features to show. Here we go!

Webix Remote for PHP and NodeJS

Establishing communication between a client and a server can be rather a difficult task. While working with a single component it may cause little problem, but any reasonably big app becomes a mess of AJAX calls on the client side and pretty tangled code on the server side.

To make your life easier, Webix 3.4 provides a solution to call server-side code directly from JavaScript.

Hey, guys!

Let’s be clear, have you also been affected by Pokemania? How many Pikachus have you caught by now? 😉 Yes, we also were exploring the streets, but not at working hours, when we were preparing the release of Webix 3.4. Don’t miss it, the launch day is the 26th of July.

What to expect from our new Webix 3.4 update?

Both under GPL license and in PRO edition:

1) Webix Remote for PHP and NodeJS (built-in solution for tight integration between the server-side and client-side code);

2)  Month and Year pickers;

3)  API to hide/show options in Tabbar and Form controls;

Only in PRO edition:

4)  Four new sparkline types (Bar, Area, Splice and Pie) for DataTable and TreeTable;

5)  Formatting patterns for Form inputs;

6)  Frozen rows feature for DataTable;

and, of course, lots of other updates and bug fixes.

While football players are restricted by the field area (watching the championship, eh?), web developers compete with each other in an even smaller battlefield called viewport. And the one wins who manages to occupy every inch of it wisely.

Still,  you can always add one more layer  to your application and choose content you’d like to show first. No doubt, Webix is always at hand with ready-made solutions for multiple-view layouts:  

• Accordion widget
• Carousel widget
• Multiview widget

Hi guys!
