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 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.

In this article, we compare 2 widgets of different generations. They are dedicated for working with diagrams. These are the outdated Organogram and a new member of the Webix family – Diagram widget, that came with the 8.3 spring release.

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.
