Versoly

I should share more features, I default to thinking they're basic and no one will care. Meanwhile developers on other platforms are creating plugins to do the same.

Shipped some QOL updates 📜 Store and use scroll position when previewing or coming back from other pages ↔️ Go to prev and next element without having to first go to the parent element. Saves 3 clicks.

I see a lot of content with complex setups to handle basic JS library implementations in no-code tools. There are ways to do it cleanly using developer best practices. For example using data-toggle and other data properties.

Thought I would combine some new features along with a popular low-code topic into one tutorial video.

Life is much easier when you follow developer best practices. For example other visual editors limit what you can put inside a slot, while Versoly allows you to insert any element. It is more flexible, easier to reason about and leads to less customer support.

A no-code tool allowing users to configure Vanilla CSS/Tailwind CSS directly will eventually win the game.

I need to host a single page with some HTML/CSS/Javascript (all inline...no external files). What's the easiest way to just copy/paste and have a publishable URL I can share of that with folks?

Shipped inline plugins for open source and external packages. - Swiper - Tilt.js - Calendly - Marquee - Many more Can add form inputs inside the visual editor that change the data attrs on elements.

Launching early access for Versoly public API. Starting off it comes with - List sites, pages and forms - Create, update and delete items and assets - Publish site If you have a use case/want access to the API just message me on live chat/dm.

I just improved FPS by 2-6x for slower devices. I recently added a lot of features such as slots and that led to reduced FPS on advanced/long pages. - Remove unneeded code - Reduce amount of work done on click/scroll/hover - Better caching

Finally getting around to making Youtube content. The latest video is about updates to playground mode. Plan is to ship fast so I can learn quickly and iterate as I go along.

I love still being able to ship features within hours of a customer request 5 years in. Fonts can now be extended and will be shown in the dropdown inside the visual editor. Opens up a whole new world for other CSS properties to be extended.

Component slots and class names are now possible in Versoly. A game changer for freelancers looking to build the most maintainable sites for customers. Also easier than ever to change styling and elements inside a component.

The component updates shipping next week are mind blowing. They build on top of existing features and unlock a whole new world. Will most likely set the roadmap for other no-code tools for the next 2-3 years.
