WebExpress 0.0.9-alpha – The Path Toward More Responsive Design

Image
With version 0.0.9 alpha, WebExpress begins a significant transformation. The system moves away from rigid layouts and embraces a dynamic, context-aware design approach that adjusts gracefully to any screen size. Responsive design is not just a technical feature. It reflects a design mindset focused on modularity, clarity, and accessibility. Why Responsive Design Matters In today’s world, users switch between smartphones, tablets, and desktops as naturally as moving between rooms. Design must follow that movement.

WebExpress 0.0.9-alpha introduces a powerful new JavaScript component for tabular data: the TableCtrl. We set out to build a highly interactive, universally applicable UI element that plays a central role in the WebExpress architecture. This control isn’t just for displaying data.

The integration is minimally invasive, and all logic is encapsulated within the control. Under the hood, everything follows a clear, modular structure: Rendering Module: Builds the tabl...
