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.
Webix continues to gather feedback from our customers to improve and to look for new valuable ideas. Today we have Malte Sussdorff (LinkedIn profile) with us. Malte is an experienced developer, Agile coach, and Scrum trainer. His current project is Cognovis, which deals with translation management systems. We are happy Malte has agreed to share his experience with us.
Today we turn to the Netherlands to meet Martin Zevenbergen (LinkedIn profile) and his colleague Johan Van Veldhuizen (LinkedIn profile). Together these young and enthusiastic developers work at a startup called Engasy. The company offers digital solutions for team cooperation. We are excited to learn about their experience.
Another user has given us his feedback on the Webix library. Tom Tenaglia, host of The Empowered Entrepreneur Show, is working on the project of a text message marketing platform. He loves everything connected with marketing and digital solutions. Let’s find out what Tom has to share with us.
В этом году мы разработали новую концепцию создания комплексных виджетов и
реализовали её на нескольких примерах: File Manager, Document Manager, Query и
User Manager. Каждый из этих комплексных виджетов написан как Webix Jet
приложение, что делает их гибкими, настраиваемыми и многофункциональными.
Исходный код такого приложения не очень прост в освоении, но как только вы
поймёте общую идею, перед вами откроется широкий спектр возможностей.
Давайте познакомимся с основными возможностями новых виджетов и узнаем
преимущества Jet-подхода.
Making a web application should be easy.
While developing Webix, we have tried to create components that simplify the development of web applications. Fast, clear, customizable; Such are the components we needed for our projects.
However, it was not enough. Every time we were developing new applications, we invented new solutions about how to keep the code, how to organize navigation, how to work with the server-side code and lots of other boring tasks. After a while, we decided that enough is enough. Eventually, all the best practices for developing on Webix were combined into a micro-framework. So, that’s how Webix Jet was born.
Webix Jet is a micro framework for a single-page application. As you probably know, Webix is a library of diverse and separate UI components. Webix Jet is a framework which allows you to combine and reuse them all and to create and develop your perfect app with minimal code footprint and without stress.
It is very light in weight (less than 10 kb of code ), works with any back end (NodeJs, PHP, .Net ) and can be used for both Desktop and Mobile apps.
