As a developer, you need to know about the codeless development platform IVX

In recent years , The development trend of low code is booming , It is no exaggeration to say that low code will be the inevitable trend of the development of human society . Why do you say that ？

The history of human development is actually a history of being “ lazy ” Word driven history , He was too lazy to walk, so he invented the car , I was too lazy to draw, so I invented the camera . So is writing code , Just because I don't want to write so much code , therefore “ Low code ” emerge as the times require . It can be said that our industry has been low code , From the earliest assembly language , To class , And then to graphical controls , And various open source plug-ins , Technical framework , The process itself is always a low code process , Step by step, it is simpler and more reusable . The great thing about low code is not just a technology , It is a good idea , Liberate people's energy from complex and repetitive work .

In accordance with the procedure “ Minimalist development ” Thought , One of the first General codeless development platform —— iVX  Be born ！

1. What is? iVX ？

The most appropriate definition is “ General codeless development platform ”. Commonality refers to the commonality of the platform , It is suitable for almost all application development scenarios and supports running in all operating systems .

iVX Provides “ Atomic level ” Component system , Support user “ Custom components ”, And with Turing's complete “ Logic editing engine / panel ”, It can realize the front and back of almost all applications “ There is no code ” Development . Besides iVX The developed application , Can be separated from iVX Independent deployment . in other words , For developers ,iVX It's just one. “ Code generator ”. No difference with handwritten code , Can be separated from iVX The platform can be deployed arbitrarily , And most others “ Low code ” The platform does not have this “ Development platform ” attribute , It can only be used inside the platform .iVX The website of the online editor is as follows ：

VxEditorhttps://editor.ivx.cn/

2. iVX Three attributes and two abilities of

• Language properties

iVX It's almost a “ Visual programming language ”, And pass “ Atomic components ”+“ Logical arrangement ” Generate intermediate code , The intermediate code is finally iVX compiler （VxEditor） Translate it into “ front end JS Code ” and “ Background code ”. At present, the background code only supports JavaScript（Node or Deno Run in ）, In the later stage, you can generate Java、Python、C# Etc .iVX It also has the openness of programming language , although iVX Can achieve “ No code programming ”, But for the needs of existing programmers ,iVX Support “ Embed custom functions ”、“ Customize SQL Code ”、“ Customize CSS Code ” And other code insertion functions .

• Cloud properties （ Cloud native ）

iVX Realized “ Applications ” and “ Running resources ” The separation of , That is to say iVX Only help users generate program code that can run efficiently , The background resources required by the program are separated from the program itself , That is to say if iVX The generator is put into AWS On the cloud , Use it AWS Resources for , Various concurrency and computing capabilities depend on AWS The ability of ; If you put it on Alibaba cloud , It depends on Alibaba cloud's own capabilities .

• Tool attribute

iVX Bring their own IDE（ Integrated development environment ）, After the developer logs in to the web page , Direct project “ Development ”、“ debugging ”、“ Release ”、“ test ”、“ Operation and maintenance ”、“ Secondary development ” Wait for the operation , Directly on one page “ Application lifecycle ” management , Minimize development and O & M processes , From the product “DevOps”. And directly generate exportable foreground and background code , Developers don't have to worry about being bound to the platform .

• Code generation capability

For some programmers who are used to writing code , You can just put iVX As a “ Code generator ”. Whether it's front-end or back-end code ,iVX Can be compiled and quickly generated .

• “ Turing Complete ” Logical ability

iVX Formed a set of “ Self consistent ” And “ Turing Complete ” Logical system of , And the logic system is reused in the logic processing of the front and back stage . It's based on “ Trigger type ” Panel system , And it can expand linearly , comparison Mendix Based on the “ flow chart ” The logic arrangement system of the will have certain advantages . 

3. How to use iVX Development ？

Use iVX For development, you need to enter the online editor  VxEditor, The initial interface is as follows ;

You can choose WebApp/ Applet 、 Little games 、 Three development scenarios of wechat applet are used to create the project ; Select the scenario and enter the application name and click Create , You can enter the development board interface ;

The development board interface consists of seven modules ：

• stage ——  Such as ps  Canvas in , Defines the project editing area , All editing and authoring are done visually in this area .
• Component toolbar ——  Each small icon is a component , Each component has a specific function and usage .
• Object tree / Material panel ——  Every component added to the development environment is recorded by the object tree , Visual display in tree structure ; The material pane is used to manage all media materials in the current case , Including video 、 Audio 、 Pictures, etc .
• Property panel ——  When selecting an object from the object tree or any point on the stage , You can see the properties pane of the object .
• menu bar ——  Perform some global operations .
• Logical toolbar —— Used to add events to objects 、 Custom function 、 Action group 、 Services and other interactive logic functions .
• Auxiliary tool ——  If you encounter problems in use, you can view the document 、 Teaching video or ask customer service for help .

Familiar with iVX After the editor , You can start the development . After the development is completed, it can be released ;

4. iVX Application development process

Development

• Advanced cloud IDE： No installation required , There is no need to configure the development environment , Use browser access iVX Editor to develop . Besides , iVX It also supports cloud IDE Deploy to private cloud .
• Powerful zero code language ： No need to write code , Don't worry about grammar , Use iVX Visual development , What you see is what you get .
• Rich resource pool ：iVX It integrates rich components and small module resources , It also supports the introduction of third parties UI library , Improve development efficiency .
• Multiplayer collaboration ： For enterprise users ,iVX It also provides a Git（ The core algorithm consists of iVX Since the research ） Collaborative development capabilities .

preview

• One click preview test ： stay iVX The editor can click preview to generate test application with one click , Preview compilation is almost instantly rendered , And the test application is in the development environment , Isolated from the production environment database , Easy for quick testing 、 verification 、debug.

Release

• One click release deployment ： stay iVX The editor can generate the final application code by clicking publish , The code has been advanced iVX Compiler optimization , Quality and efficiency exceed 90% Programmers write code by hand ; At the same time, the application will be automatically deployed and hosted to iVX Cloud platform . Besides iVX It also supports code export and private deployment .

test

• Production environment testing ： The released application is in the production environment , But it does not replace the online apps , At this time, the final test of the real environment before the official launch of the application can be carried out .

shelves

• One click online ： The tested release application can be pushed to application users with one click .
• Version history ： For enterprise users ,iVX It also provides the historical version function of online applications , You can roll back to any version with one click if necessary .

Operation and maintenance

• Visual operation and maintenance management ：iVX Application services provided , It can meet the visual management of the server , And real-time monitoring of application usage data .
• Application management ：iVX The workbench can view all applications and application status , And provides a quick filter 、 Search element application , And the function of quickly managing applications .
