What's New

Finally it is here! The multiple editor layouts in Wappler, so you can have different editor side by side and also switch between them with ease. You can also have different layouts for different projects and also save and restore the layouts when you restart Wappler.

All for your convenience and to make your work with Wappler even more productive! Switch from the titlebar to different editing layouts like two columns or two rows, what ever suits your needs best. You can also drag and drop tabs from one layout to another and also drag and drop tabs to the new layout icon in the titlebar to create a new layout with the dragged tab.

The new multiple layouts in Wappler is an experimental features, so to use it make sure you have the “System Experimental” option enabled in the Wappler options first.
