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.
The main fall release of 2021 was marked by a number of important updates to the Webix library. Among other changes, a special place is kept to a deep update of one of the complex widgets of the library. And this article is dedicated to the flagship of the 9.0 release, namely, the new Webix JavaScript Pivot widget. Let’s figure out what has been changed and how the updates affected the functionality, interface and code in general.
Barely a month passed after the latest release that brought you a bunch of compelling features. And already today we are happy to deliver Webix 9.1. Even though not that big, yet with pleasant updates. With the new version Chat users can share files with each other, while Spreadsheet supports even more math functions.
L.M. Montgomery once said: “I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.”. We cannot but agree, and she didn’t even know that Autumns are special not only for their beauty and blue vibes but also for Webix annual grand releases. The 9.0 brings you rethought Pivot widget, long awaited UX and API updates for Diagram and its Editor, separate working calendars for resources and UTC support in Gantt, minor updates for Spreadsheet and Core. Let’s proceed to the details.
It is still hot as blazes here, in our homeland. Thankfully, the skies have pity on us from time to time and grant the salutary clouds for a couple of hours. Today we, as to say, carpe diem and are here to deliver… Guess what? Webix 8.4, of course! The update brought you a complementary Diagram Editor tool, an ability to perform audio and video calls in Chat, increased performance in Gantt, and other small yet pleasant improvements in Spreadsheet and Core. So get your ice-cold coke and let’s start.
The summer of 2021 is finally here in Minsk. Sunny days tempt the Webix team to finish working hours earlier and to enjoy warm nights in the city or cozy sunsets near the lake. But luckily the sun provides us with extra energy to work and to make the Webix library better.
A nice improvement we are happy to share with you is our new Samples Gallery. Now we have all our favorite widgets in one place with the useful information gathered succinctly. The Gallery is easy to navigate and it claims to become a handy tool for making the Webix learning curve shorter. Let’s look at the possibilities of the new tool!
We are happy to talk to one more Webix customer from hot and sunny Brazil. Marcilio Cortes (LinkedIn profile) is an experienced developer who is currently working on his proper project. He has kindly agreed to share his experience with us. Let’s find out what his view on Webix is.
I do not know how it is in your location, but in Webix motherland it is the coldest spring ever. Yet it really motivates to work hard and stay productive to deliver new features to our customers. Today we are glad to present a new complex widget, Webix Diagram, as well as new timeline and day units views for Scheduler, split tasks for Gantt and usability improvement for Spreadsheet.
Already impressed? Let’s proceed to learn about each update in detail.
