Hello everyone.
It’s a simple question, but it’s fundamental:
Is there finally an update/upgrade to the webix skin builder?
The software is modern, but the layout seems outdated.
Is there any plan to update the skin builder in the near future?
Hello Michael,
There are some updates planned for the Skin Builder, though none currently include layout changes.
We’d really appreciate your feedback, could you let us know which parts of the Skin Builder feel outdated and how you’d like to see them improved? I’ll share your suggestions with our technical team for consideration in upcoming revisions.
Thanks a lot for your request, Nastassia.
Before I give you my advice I want to say it’s always in the eye of the beholder! For what is modern or not. I mean you have already material in your builder.
But please have a look on material 3 design : https://m3.material.io/
And please do not forget to give me the ability to switch my design as I can at the moment. Means each design css-files etc. should be in one container. So everyone can switch the design as they like.
That would be very great. Could you give me an idea in which time period will it be ready?
Have a great summer
Michael
You ask me about the skin builder… Please make it modern, not from the early 2000 year… and please have a look on this:
or this:
Colors must be fresh and happy for new beginners… they are used to use whatsapp etc…
That would great if you can make it real… please.
Michael
Hello @Michael ,
Thank you for your feedback regarding the Webix skin builder. We appreciate your suggestions for improvement.
We recognize the importance of keeping our tools modern. While we understand the desire for an updated skin builder, we currently have several high-priority tasks that require our immediate attention.
That said, we acknowledge the value of this enhancement for our ecosystem and would like to express our intention to explore updates to the skin builder by the end of the year. However, we cannot commit to a specific timeline at this moment.
Thank you for your understanding, and we will keep your suggestions in mind as we continue to improve our offerings.
Hello Natalia.
I understand your priorities, and the layout isn’t always the focus of development. I’ve been with you since version 3.4 (I think), and that was quite a while ago. Back then, the skin builder looked like this too. But through my business, I’ve repeatedly received feedback that the layout looks a bit dated. And the look and feel is also an important factor for sales. The better business does, the sooner I can buy a new license from webix… What I’m saying is that a fresh layout drives sales and thus revenue… that’s something that suits you too…
With that in mind, have a nice weekend
Michael
