also there is no animation engine, which will be worked on this year
animation is still possible just not without code
and no CMS, that means no blogs or platforms like a marketplace?
not exactly, CMS is a specific type of data that is able to generate pages, dynamic data is already launched and works well, you can create memberships and marketplaces
can you give examples of CMS content and other content I can make like the membership and marketplace sites
CMS Content like a blog requires pages generation so its not possible right now
otherwise you can create pages with dynamic content
its really generic, anything that can be fetched from a Rest api
so how would i go about creating a membership or marketplace site?
could i make an uber eats clone?
potentially, we don't have much examples yet, I recommend looking through the showcase and templates channels to see what people have been building so far, otherwise you would have to wait for official tutorials
i've seen only 4 templates on the platform.
is there a way to create a database? i heard this was an alternative to bubble so i was hoping the database was similar to that or something like Frontly that lets you user Google sheets
you can connect to supabase and others via rest
there is no reason to lock you into our database hosting
alright, and thats another platform or a plugin?
i dont see it on that list you gave me
supabase is one of hundreds of services/platforms, the list above is just an example
thank you, i will look into this
can you do calculations on-site?
Is Webstudio able to build full webapps without using Wized? Toddle.dev allows for variables, formulas and events/workflows does Webstudio do that now or do you plan to add later?
what kind of calculations?
in html embed with your custom js - yes
you can also have math operators in expressions in bindings
we are currently missing actions - ability to react to events and set variables. once this exists, you will be able to do that, expressions is what we use to express logical operators and math operators, you get them via bindings
wized is already unnecessary, since you can connect directly to a database like supabase via rest
I am trying to make a move from bubble.io and was considering Webflow when I learned of Webstudio and found it even easier than Webflow. However I want to build a web app and found Wized is too complicated. Then discovered WeWeb and Toddle and Webstudio and I am trying to determine which is best to develop a Web App today
if today means literally today, use toddle
if today means within next 3 month, then we will have what you need
toddle is more mature in terms of logic/actions
Thanks for the honest response
like if you need to have an interest calculator or you want to add a slider that scales the pricing of your product/package based on the quantity and items selected?
social proofing? x amount of users purchased this item. x amount of people like this in your area.
this item is being sold x miles from you. [Store name] is x miles from you.
etc
this type of things will currently require custom js
will you have documentation on this?
not really, this is literally javascript logic
oh, this is a part of webflow. thanks
so we would have to learn javascript in order to make this possible?
right now yes, because we haven't made a UI for building any logic visually, also it might simply be not the best approach, since even though easier to start it might make it hard to express certain things
with gpt writing code for logic like this could be automated
try using chatgpt and ask it to write javascript you need
Never saw Stately Studio before, very cool. Thanks for sharing. The amount of innovation in the noccode space is crazy
this has always been tricky for me
its gonna get better, especially with fine tuning specifically for webstudio
is there a way to format a cell for currency instead of just numeric value?
wait, was Toddle and integration option or just another webapp builder?
you mean render a localized price?
its a separate builder but you can also embed toddle web component inside of webstudio inside html embed
so if you need something that has super custom logic you can use a toddle embed
just like toddle is embeddable in webflow
this adds that ability to dynamically interact with the data as you would on bubble?
we don't, that would be part of a larger localization effort
please explain.
i wanted to list prices on a product card
we don't have a localization yet
if you want to render the price you would just render a price
also you can have the text already in the form you need coming from the database/backend
maybe I also don't understand your question, better make a super specific example
ok, so i am testing the possibility of creating product cards to create a store or market place and i wanted to dynamically list price the same as other variables
Can webstudio integrate with a Xano backend? I think it looks a lot like the recent video on the Supabase integration
i am trying to format the numbers as currency for pricing.
also, do you know if we can import data into supa via api and bring it into webstudio?
actually I think I just found a way to do that now with a bit of js
not as simple as it should but its possible
oof, alright, lets have it. gotta rip this band-aid off eventually, lol
thanks for looking it up though
i'm not sure if this was answered before or not, but can you link boxes, headlines, images, etc to urls?
how so?
like, can i add a stripe link to it?
use a link component, put any of these inside
it can be treated as a container?
If you have learned otherwise its because the builders were inventing bullshit limitations. That's how HTML works actually.
interesting, i just checked it out, thank you
also, i checked that price page you sent.
that can work with data brought over from supabase?
and you are referring to the html embed and not the variable, right?
would that mean nesting the collection within the html embedd container?
hey, I have to go, please check out examples and spend some time playing
alright, sure. thanks for your time
great to read that Actions are in your roadmap !
I was wondering what's the difference (in features) between Weweb and Webstudio at the moment, and I guess it's the Actions.
Any timeframe in mind for when the Action feature may be released?
there are something like a gazillion of differences, we generally don't provide estimates for feature releases.
ok, I see - was actually wondering how to make "guest users / current session" with webstudio (to migrate our "e-commerce like" quote generation tool, from webflow to webstudio, using Baserow as backend). Is it already possible?
authentification is possible
ok thanks, so no "guest users" possible (the idea is to let people compose their shopping basket before/without being logged)
