Popular Post joshuag Posted July 4, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 4, 2018 Hey guys, Thought I would share a quick preview of Designme. A module we (Eduardo @elabx and I) are building for visually laying out your templates/edit screens. ? This is a really quick, zero polish screen grab. FYI. Video #2 - UPDATE This new video shows the following features in Designme: Re-arranging fields via Drag & Drop Re-sizing fields via Dragging. Adjusting field settings - with live refresh. Working on "hidden" fields while Designme is active. Creating New fields. Deleting fields. Creating/Deleting Tabs. Dragging fields between tabs. Creating fieldsets. Tagging/Un-tagging fields. Fields without headers expand when hovered (like checkboxes). Live filtering of fields in the sidebar. Ability to adjust (all) Template settings without leaving Designme. Template File Tree Editing Template files source code with ACE Editor. Editing Multiple files with ACE Editor. (New Tabs) Saving files. Techie stuff Fields load their own js/css dependancies. *ready to use on creation (*most fields) Everything happens via Ajax to ProcessPageEdit (via module + hooks). Designme has a JS api that you can use. All actions trigger events. We would love any detailed feedback on what you see so far. If you are interested in testing Designme. Let me know below. ?

Tom. Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Looks very polished. Are the animations very slow or is that the video framerate? Looking great so far! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dotnetic Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Wow, I waited so long for something like this. I think this could push ProcessWire really forward. When do you plan to release? And will it be a paid module or a free one? Thank you for creating this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not have a firm release/completion date yet, although working towards it as fast as possible. As soon as I can I will answer all your questions about Designme. Hopefully by the end of this week I will be able to show you guys some more features that I didn't include in the preview video. ? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 I've been thinking PW could do with something like this for a long time but your implementation is way better than anything I had imagined - great work! ? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a lot. I think the biggest challenge so far has been to try to make Designme feel like a natural extension of using PW instead of an additional layer of complexity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendonKoz Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Is it dynamically creating a custom template on-the-fly? Just quickly thinking how it works, though it doesn't really matter. Quite slick indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragan Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Awesome. I also like @theo's "preview / page-grid" module a lot. I realize they don't do the same stuff, but just imagine if you had both functionalities available! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just quickly thinking how it works, though it doesn't really matter. Quite slick indeed. In this demo video, it is working from the existing 'home' template. All Ajax requests are going directly to the existing ProcessPageEdit url. there are no 'dynamic templates', but very shortly, you will have the ability to create templates on the fly from the page tree and start editing directly in Designme to speedup template/data model creation. So you can start with a completely blank template/editscreen and start throwing in fields as fast as possible. (hope this makes sense). 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for showing this to me, I hadn't seen it before now. I am excited to see how it evolves. visual building is always very exciting! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MilenKo Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Joshuag, from the videos I can tell that the work of your team is a masterpiece. It would be great to test the functionality in real whenever you are ready for a release. Keep up the good work. That is why I signed up for ProcessWire - because of its super creative and extremely supportive community. If you need some testers, you can count on me. I am just starting a new project and a module like yours would help me get more efficient while at the same time I would make sure to report any issues spotted or share ideas of improvement (if any ofcourse ? ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin S Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 When removing a field from Page Edit, is the user removing that field from the associated template? Does that happen on the fly or Is there some sort of "Apply" step that happens at the end with the normal warnings about the loss of data that will occur? If it happens on the fly is there an undo feature? I'd be a bit nervous about accidentally clicking on the field remove button otherwise. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
