Plugins
Hey there, Tadabase Users! Tim from Tadabase here, and today I'm thrilled to introduce you to an amazing new feature called Tadabase plugins!
Tadabase plugins are bite-sized pieces of code that can be easily installed into your application with just a few clicks. This powerful feature brings you the benefits of no-code installation and low-code customization, allowing you to completely transform how your app looks, feels, and functions by adding these plugins to any page.
So, what makes these plugins so useful? Well, the possibilities are virtually endless! Whether you want to embed an external widget, enhance your user interface, improve the user experience, or make general utility improvements, Tadabase plugins have got you covered.
Let's take a closer look at how it all works. To access the plugins, simply go to the page builder and select any of your application pages. You'll notice a new button in the upper right-hand corner called "plugins." Clicking on it will reveal all the available plugins for that specific page.
By default, any non-compatible plugins will be hidden, meaning they require a compatible component on your page to work. However, if you uncheck the "hide non-compatible plugins" option, you can explore all available plugins. You can search for plugins, filter them by category, or find plugins based on the component they are used for.
For example, let's say you want to add a Calendly link to allow users to book meetings. You can easily install the Calendly plugin, which will prompt you to choose the component you want to install the plugin for, along with some extra settings for Calendly. Once installed, you'll have a fully functional Calendly widget inside your app. And the best part is, you can still customize it with low-code adjustments by modifying the CSS, JavaScript, or HTML code associated with the plugin.
Here's another exciting example of how Tadabase plugins can supercharge your app. Imagine you're working on a project management application, and you have three specific changes in mind. First, you want to display a progress bar to track task progress based on a specific field. Second, you want users to add task notes using voice recordings. And third, you want to convert attachments into audio players.
With Tadabase plugins, this is a breeze! Simply search for the desired plugins, install them, and choose the components and fields you want to apply them to. In just under a minute, your app is transformed, and you can see the progress bar, record voice notes, and listen to audio attachments.
Tadabase plugins empower you to make these customizations without the need for complex coding skills. It's all about no-code installation with the option for low-code customization. You get to take control of how your app looks, feels, and behaves, all without the hassle of starting from scratch.
We're beyond excited to bring you Tadabase plugins, and we can't wait for you to try them out. And guess what? In the future, we'll open up the plugins for the community, so you can build and share your own amazing plugins with the entire Tadabase community!
Thanks for joining us today, and we hope you're as thrilled as we are about Tadabase plugins. Go ahead, give them a try, and see your app transform into something extraordinary. Until next time, take care, and happy building with Tadabase!
