What’s New

Another great major Wappler update full of greatness for you! We have included huge amount of improvements and fixes as reported in our community!

As major components the Visual Expression Editor has been greatly improved to work more smooth and be more responsive. Another improved UI component is the grid control in the properties panels, that is now much easier to use with single click edits.

Also the ASP.NET Server Support has received a huge boost in speed and stability! We do require now at least .NET Framework 4.5.2 to be installed.

Furthermore in Server Connect the repeater component is updated with new output filter options to easy allow you to include or exclude fields in its output.
