Low code platform brixxbox: Drag & drop to the first ERP business application

LOW CODE PLATFORM BRIXXBOX: DRAG & DROP TO THE FIRST ERP BUSINESS APPLICATION: The low-code platform brixxbox offers a high degree of flexibility and scalability in application development. Compared to classic application development, the low-code platform enables much faster target achievement - not least because of the underlying drag & drop principle. The first application is created quickly and easily with the application construction kit. 

Low-code platforms are the future. Many experts agree on this. Even in the development of business applications, low-code platforms offer a number of advantages over traditional programming. Especially for "beginners" in this area, the fact that simple business applications can be created relatively quickly and easily thanks to the graphical support, particularly with regard to master data entry programs such as address management or appointment management, even with little basic knowledge. The highlight: Any number of fields can be put together using drag & drop and linked to a database - the scope of which can be defined at any time. To get started with brixxbox, basic Excel skills and a basic understanding of tables and formulas (e.g. if-then formula) are sufficient. 


Step by step to the first application with the Application Designer 

Business applications of any requirement level can be created quickly and easily with the intuitive visual user interface. The key: the Process Designer has various preview options at all times and can see how the changes will affect the application during configuration. The configuration is implemented using so-called brixxes. Each brixx, i.e. a field with predefined functions, has extensive setting options that the user can influence on the user interface without any programming knowledge. In addition to the size and design of the field, the respective responsive properties can also be influenced directly on the interface. Even the checking of certain input formats (e.g. IBAN) can be easily switched on or off. In classic environments, the effort is significantly greater and almost impossible for beginners. It is also possible to link individual apps without any programming knowledge. For example, address management can be very easily linked with the associated contact person management and the relevant contact data. Other features such as archiving can be added as required. 

The advantages of this approach are obvious: applications created with the brixxbox are not only completed more quickly; where other low-code platforms require intervention in the existing installation to make adjustments, the brixxbox allows changes to be made easily at any time within a few minutes during operation. All changes are of course versioned so that the previous status can be restored at any time. More flexibility in application development is not possible! 

SUPPORT FOR APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT WITH THE LOW CODE PLATFORM

Process designers receive extensive support for their first application creation with the brixxbox low-code platform in the form of video tutorials, comprehensive documentation and a range of preconfigured application templates. The templates can either be used directly or serve as an idea/template for your own individual applications. Functions can be added or adapted quickly and easily via the modern user interface.
