What’s New

Wappler gains more native OS powers!

This Wappler update includes a huge architecture change! Now we are using native popup windows and dialogs to fully enjoy the native OS look and feel!
So now modal dialogs like Database Query Builder and popup windows like the Data Bindings are full native windows that you can resize or drag to any screen and position you want! The modal dialogs also have native close and maximize buttons based on the OS. So for example traffic lights on MacOS.

Note this is still and experimental feature, so you have to enable the native windows.
