Improve Data Entry with Built-In Table Structure

November 17, 2025
Optimajet FormEngine v7.3.0 adds a powerful new table component for creating structured, multi-row data inputs directly inside forms.

Optimajet FormEngine is a drag-and-drop React form builder that lets teams create, manage, and render complex web forms without writing frontend code. It allows developers and business users to visually design forms, store them as JSON, and render them at runtime. As a React JS library, it easily integrates into existing applications while giving developers full control over form logic, structure, and data flow, making it well suited for complex data collection.

The Optimajet FormEngine v7.3.0 update introduces a new Table component that allows developers to structure form inputs in organized rows and columns, making it easier to handle multi-row or repeatable data within a single form. This addition enables cleaner data modeling, improves usability for scenarios that require tabular entry, and integrates with existing FormEngine features such as validation, conditional logic, and JSON-based configuration.

To see a full list of what's new in version v7.3.0, see our release notes.

Optimajet FormEngine is licensed based on usage type (internal commercial use, public web/SaaS, or OEM embedding), number of domains for the visual editor, and access to additional ready-made components. Licenses are perpetual and include 6 months or 1 year of updates and support. See our Optimajet FormEngine licensing page for full details.

Enable RTL Layout in Data Entry Interfaces

November 14, 2025
With built-in Right to Left (RTL) features, React data editors enable input and editing in languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, and Persian.

Right-to-left (RTL) support in a data editor component enables the user interface and content layout to be displayed in a direction consistent with languages that are read from right to left, such as Arabic or Hebrew. This includes aligning text, input fields, table structures, and control elements to the right side of the screen, while preserving correct data formatting and interaction behavior. For software developers, RTL support ensures that applications can be properly localized for RTL language audiences without compromising usability or data readability.

Several React data editors offer right to left (RTL) support including:

  • DevExtreme React Data Editors (part of DevExtreme Complete by DevExpress) supports right-to-left layouts which mirrors UI elements and adjusts directionality in editor controls.
  • KendoReact Data Editors by Telerik includes built-in RTL support, enabling components to render correctly for RTL languages and adapting their layout, messages and alignment.
  • Wijmo React Data Editors (part of Wijmo by MESCIUS) provides RTL support allowing components to render correctly for RTL languages.
  • Syncfusion React Data Editors (part of Syncfusion Essential Studio Enterprise) supports RTL mode enabling full right-to-left rendering of UI elements and data-led controls.

Track Changes as They Happen with Live Charts

November 14, 2025
Display live chart data to deliver real-time insight, faster decisions, earlier issue detection, and more engaging, accurate reporting.

Live data support for charts enables visualizations to update automatically as new information arrives, turning static dashboards into continuously refreshed, real-time views. This reduces reliance on manual refreshes or scheduled reports and helps prevent decisions based on stale data. Teams gain immediate insight into changing conditions, spotting anomalies, performance issues, or opportunities as they emerge. Typical use cases include monitoring website traffic, application performance, financial markets, IoT sensors, and business KPIs such as orders, revenue, or support queues. By making current metrics instantly visible, live charts improve responsiveness, operational control, and confidence in data-driven decisions and outcomes across the organization.

Several React chart controls support live data including:

  • DevExtreme React Chart (part of DevExtreme Complete by DevExpress) lets you stream live data into interactive visualizations, keeping dashboards continuously updated.
  • amCharts 5: Charts allows you to visualize constantly updating live data, animating changes smoothly so users immediately see evolving trends and anomalies.
  • Ignite UI for React Chart (part of Infragistics Ignite UI by Infragistics) lets you render high-frequency, real-time data streams, maintaining responsive, high-performance dashboards.
  • FusionCharts Suite XT facilitates real-time, self-updating charts that pull live data from servers, powering monitoring dashboards, trading interfaces, and operational views.
