JavaScript libraries and frameworks have gained great popularity due to the significant assistance they provide in the development process. Usually, such libraries offer a set of ready-made components and widgets that can be integrated into any application or that can be combined for a blueprint of the future application. When those libraries improve their source code regularly, provide their customers with responsive technical support and offer a lively community forum, they quickly become the most-talked-about.
Let's look at one of those libraries. Webix JS library is the project of XB Software company. It has been on the market since 2010 and has matured greatly since then. Why is it good in fast rendering?
Fast even with big data sets.
The more data you need to work with the slower the rendering process is. With Webix there is no such thing. The widgets of the library are fast due to paging and dynamic loading. There is a wide choice of Data Management widgets. They provide various data manipulation features, such as all-in-one-piece data loading, CRUD operations, fast data sorting, on-the-fly filtering, grouping, and styling. The Data widgets facilitate the process of arranging and presenting large amounts of data in a clear and structured way.
Best rendering speed.
These are not just mere words. According to the performance comparison for JS data grid components, Webix shows the best results. As mentioned in the overview, Webix scrolls one row at a time, which allows the browser to keep up. Conversely, to other solutions, where a flick scroll jumps hundreds of rows at a time, resulting in whiteouts.
Pure JavaScript.
JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages on the planet today. It allows you to implement an infinite number of browser solutions, from the web front-end to complex browser calculations. At the moment, most applications are Web-oriented and have a UI layer written in JavaScript. So, the Webix library keeps up with the times as it is written with JavaScript. It ensures a full client-side solution for animated or highly interactive dashboards due to the instant updates of HTML5 components.
The three reasons mentioned are sufficient to make the right choice and opt for the fast rendering solution. Even more so, with all the features and possibilities of the Webix library.
