Release Highlights

Introducing UDesigner

Starting with the 7.10.0 release, UDesigner will become the default user interface for Unqork users. UDesigner is Unqork’s new core Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that supports all existing and new Unqork functionalities. Building off of the same user interface you’ve used before, UDesigner introduces a suite of enhancements designed to revolutionize your development experience including:

  • Easier Cross-Collaboration: Enhanced collaboration and communication tools ensuring everyone – not just developers – can contribute effectively, leading to faster problem-solving and reduced development time.

  • Seamless Navigation: Improved wayfinding capabilities that help users get information faster, and boost productivity, making development smoother and allowing for a quicker time to market.

  • Integrated Application Lifecycle Management: Streamlined processes and tools embedded in UDesigner enable effortless collaboration, facilitate easier updates, and confident testing throughout the entire Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC).

Introducing Vega

Creators can now also start building next-generation applications with UDesigner on the new Vega runtime. Rest assured, your existing applications will continue to function seamlessly, ensuring continuity while you explore the advanced features and benefits of Vega. This transformative runtime includes:

  • Performance and Stability: Architected from the ground up with performance and stability as its core objectives, Vega offers new layers of scalability for both business and IT.

  • Powerful New Features: Vega unlocks a suite of game-changing features designed to elevate user experience and enable the creation of more sophisticated applications. These features include Embedded UI, Vega Tables, and Operations Builder.

  • Extensibility and Modularity: Build, reuse, and iterate faster with this highly modular runtime that supports the creation of complex, yet maintainable applications.

Introducing Application Versioning

TIP  Enhancements for this feature will continue to be released in upcoming releases. Visit the Documentation Hub regularly to see the new changes.

Application Versioning is an important process in software development. When multiple team members contribute to the creation of an application, versioning ensures team members are building, testing, and viewing the correct application version and not creating unintended changes for other team members. Application Versioning also lets you easily add enhancements, test functionality, troubleshoot issues, and roll back an application to a working version. When enabled, you can publish unique, uneditable versions of your application for stability, create branches to work in parallel, and merge changes across branches.

Important Considerations

1. Application Versioning for the 7.10.0 release only supports module-type applications. It does not currently support workflow-type applications.
2. Once an application is converted to a versioned application, it cannot be reverted back into an unversioned application.
3. Library modules or dependencies from unversioned applications are not supported with versioned applications. Any shared modules must be added into another versioned application and reshared if needed in your application.
4. Application versioning can be enabled on an application-by-application basis.

TIP  To learn more about Application Versioning, view our Introduction to Application Versioning article.

New UDesigner and Vega Documentation

Due to the large amount of Unqork documentation on the Documentation Hub, article updates are ongoing, and will be available as features are released. As new Vega features are developed, you can find all Vega documentation here. To support Unqork’s Classic Designer and our new UDesigner IDE, updated documentation will include both versions of the IDE. Supported documentation includes new Classic Designer and UDesigner tabs that allow you to view the appropriate documentation without having to navigate to a new page.
