WEBIX BLOG

We are looking for developers, project managers, teamleads, technical writers, startups founders or just talented authors to contribute their experience and useful tips to our blog. Just as you appreciate your favorite food blogger (who, by the way, may be a builder, an accountant, or a marketer by background) for his or her wonderful recipes, we value our guest writers for the expertise and experience they are willing to share with the world, not for their profession.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We wish you to share unforgettable holiday moments with your loved ones. May 2019 bring health, success, and well-being to you and your family! Check out an amusing postcard story in the post.

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 With the next large release of Webix 7.0, which will happen in the following September, we will remove outdated and seldom used API from the library.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

Magic time is coming and our Team is delighted to send you our warmest Christmas and New Year wishes.
May your Christmas be filled with warmth, peace, happiness and special moments spent with your beloved ones. We wish you and your families a wonderful new year full of new opportunities, abundant joy and spectacular success.

The passing year has brought us a lot of positive news: 5 new releases, updated Spreadsheet, accessibility, but it is not all. We have something extra to offer!

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, 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?

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.

Hey guys!

Hey guys!

I’m sure that all of you already feel the smell of an upcoming spring, while we definitely feel the approach of the first major update in this year – Webix 3.2, which is scheduled for release on February 24th.

What we are going to share:

• SpreadSheet widget – a new great widget, which is similar to Excel or spreadsheet in Google docs;

• export to PDF for all data components;
• and, of course, plenty of fixes and small improvements.

Pre-Christmas Hi to everyone!
