And I get that, I was a heavy Filemaker Pro user in the past, FoxPro, PowerBuilder and the like.īut as soon as it gets customer facing, the value proposition of the “low code” tool Wappler goes down to zero: it’s something between the ancient Dreamweaver and VS Code and you spend more time in the code view than in the “graphical editor”. ![]() Wappler is great, no, a phantastic, product for bespoke commercial applications - and from what I can see here on the forums, most of the users are using Wappler exact for this use case. From my background (Ionic/React user at this time and backend developer using Java and PHP), Wappler wasn’t simply a fit for me. I wanted to create prototypes/PoC and MVP, that’s why I ended here on the product. To be crystal clear: I personally do not use Wappler for mobile projects, not even mobile websites. ![]() But learning Wappler AND understanding the pitfalls of the product AND struggeling with outdated documentation AND keeping track with the awesome fast pace of releases, AND also learning frameworks AND going mobile, you’re proned to fail. It will work when you know Wappler in and out. So, here’s my advice: DON’T USE WAPPLER FOR THAT! Is there a developer using Wappler who will make these Android and Apple App videos? If Wappler will not commission these I will pay to subscribe to Step-by-Step Instructional videos that finally take Wappler to its fullest powers. Wappler makes claims for the ease of using this low code, visual approach tool to make Mobile Apps but is curiously thin on demonstrating Android and iOS mobile device apps creation to potential users who drop by to investigate its special powers. These kind of videos prominently featured and promoted in their own section would be much more likely to attract subscriptions to Wappler. I would point them to some of the Docs I have looked at, but as to real life examples, say, choosing to go with Framework 7 instead of Bootstrap 5 utilizing some of the core components that specifically target features of an Android or iOS App there are no examples I know of.Īnd then another step-by-step video using Bootstrap 5 and how some of the components must be changed or left out because it is Bootstrap and the app targets Android. Where do I see the whole process? You know, demonstrations of using Wappler to make a complete app that does so & so from start to finish?” “How about this Wappler that you subscribe to, I want to make some Apple and Android aps. I would not know about this topic unless someone more experienced explained their design and framework choices because of this and that consideration. There you go, a chance comment that leaves me with more questions. I was planning to use F7, but moved later to BS with custom CSS and utilizing the Offcanvas for the menu. I am always left wishing that Wappler had extensive documentation specifically “In this video/tutorial we will make an iOS App using Framework 7 with the latest App Connect and updated plugins of Wappler 5.7.0 Beta to create an app that uses these iOS Phone and iPad Native components …” or some such verbiage. However, we end at the same place that my previous questions wind up, year after year.Īs usual, the Reason for raising the topics is because these “discussions” always end up with sage advice to go look at other sources outside of Wappler to learn how these mobile apps are constructed.Īgain and again it is in the Forum, through thread after thread, that we piece together over time, more differences, comparisons, assurances in GENERALITIES about what can be done, not done, etc. Thank you again for assisting us in understanding these concepts from a real life Developer’s long experience. If these in-depth Wappler Project for an iOS app videos exist I haven’t found them. Issues like this as handled in the iOS Native components while using Wappler.Ī whole series of videos that get into the nitty gritty of how Wappler will be used when you are not developing for node.js but for iOS. The flow construct for App connect, best practice, to have the app save each form submit to a live remote database and yet smoothly handle an offline mode where the form can still be used, submitting, storing successive submissions.Īllowing the user to review and edit these entries before synching online. How to enable an offline capability: saving a filled-out forms fields data on the iOS device and then synching that data to a remote database when the user is back online. I have not seen a single video or Wappler docs tutorial on a Developer actually using Wappler, say, for what will be an iOS app.įor instance, now focusing on using components that would only apply or be available for an App destined for an iPad vs an iPhone, etc. ![]()
