Just a couple of years ago, it was hard to imagine that remote work could be the norm of everyday life. But today, it is a common thing. A lot of employees don’t want to spend precious time commuting during rush hour to their workplace in the center of a huge city.

There are much more pleasant things to do instead. You can spend this time reading a fascinating book, drinking a cup of coffee and petting your beloved cat. All of these things can be done while sitting on a balcony overlooking the sea. Do you think it is only a dream? No! It is the daily routine of many IT professionals and not only.

Based on such specifics of work, the company’s managers may have additional worries. It is about tracking the location of staff and synchronizing their work schedules. And in this article, I’m going to show you how to solve such difficulties using the Webix components and third-party solutions.

You can find the full source code and a live demo here.

Spring 2022 appeared to be insufficiently warm. Let’s hope this summer will be rich in hot, sunny days and we will all have an opportunity to relax before the fall, which is expected to be fruitful. Let’s see what spring’22 has brought Webix followers.

Webix reactivates our practice of talking to customers. We are glad you are looking forward to sharing your experience with us. This time we are happy to talk to Bonard Tito Saragih (LinkedIn profile). Bonard works at Gnusa, a web application development company. The company deals with system architecture, cloud infrastructure, security, etc. We were pleased to find the Webix logo among the frameworks used in the company.

The Webix team is ready to present you with the 9.3 version of the Webix library. Our first major update of 2022 includes emoji and reactions for Chat, new types of sparklines, copying & pasting via shortcuts for Scheduler, and many more. Read further to dive into all the upcoming changes.

Webix 9.2 has brought several enhancements for the library. We added vital fixes and performance improvements for the library core, SpreadSheet, Pivot, and some of the other complex widgets.

The Webix team continues working on the library and its components. We are improving mostly due to the feedback of our customers. Today we talked to Ralf van Diesen (LinkedIn profile). He is the CEO of the Advanced Virtualization Technologies company. The company deals with the problem of old and obsolete hardware. They create a special virtual layer that allows existing software to run on the system without changing the hardware. The software designer of the company, Marie-France (LinkedIn profile), is also with us today. We are happy to know how Webix facilitates their job. 

Webix is proud of its product, but it’s always great to know that the efforts are worthwhile. We are happy to inform you that our library continues gathering high-scored reviews and as a result, we were noted by the expert software platforms again.

Today, at the beginning of 2022, we want to announce our ambitious plans for the upcoming year. As you know, each year we try to create something new for our customers and admirers of web technologies. And this year is by far no exception. Let’s dive into details of the upcoming features and upgrades of the Webix UI library.

Rockers from the “30 Seconds to Mars” band dreamed of reaching the “red planet” in 30 seconds. But, unfortunately, modern science has not yet achieved such heights. According to the famous astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson, we need about 26 million seconds for this journey.

Do you know what we can do in 30 seconds right now? Let’s try to create a small app using the Webix UI library and check if it is possible. The main idea and information for this article were provided by our client, an interview with whom you can read in our blog.

Webix is planning to get better and stronger in the new 2022. To implement this New Year resolution we carefully listen to our customers’ feedback. Today we have Mr. David Sutton with us. David is a jack-of-all-trades in IT. Currently, he is the IT Director and a single developer of the family business, Compounder’s International Analytical Laboratory. We are happy to learn David’s impressions of our product.
