Advanced visual screen builder

Open Ingenu1ty opened this issue 9 months ago • 14 comments

Hi👋 I am an enthusiast of the low-code approach. I crawl the internet looking for interesting and promising solutions in the lowcode niche. Unfortunately, despite the numerous low-code platforms, only a few of them can boast sufficient flexibility and openness...

Grida looks promising! So I want to share my findings on low-code solutions. I mean reka.js as an off-the-shelf solution for visual builder. Imho this is the best approach I've ever seen to create an editor with flexible abilities to create complex UIs. I hope my suggestion will bring fresh ideas and promote synergy. Good luck👍

This is actually a very intersting reference ! we have something similar for the AST, https://github.com/gridaco/grida/tree/main/packages/grida-tokens

But never thouhgt of it tying to react lifecycle

Thanks !

Exactly! Bringing "react" concepts to AST gives unprecedented ability for end users to create flexible interfaces with complex state logic.

Another idea I'd like to share: using "state machines" to organize convenient state management. This would solve the complexity of state management problems and give end users the ability to easily create complex rules for form validation and appearance/disappearance of UI elements, etc.


One more thing... Your roadmap includes AI capabilities. I think "state machines" could help with that aspect too...
