Mendix Magic: Mobilize Your Responsive Apps with No Code

Create a Mendix account to manage licenses and apps. The next video provides a quick demo on how to set up your account.

install mendix studio pro, set installation and workspace folders, understand java and gradle dependencies, and learn to launch, log in, and use version selector for no-code web and mobile apps.

Demonstrates installing mendix studio pro v9.19.0 for a demo and compares versions (v9, v10) to balance latest features with compatibility, referencing lts and mts.

Learn to use the Mendix version selector to manage multiple Mendix versions. See parallels with version tools like nvm for Node.js and similar selectors in Python, Java, Go, and Scala.

Initialize a Mendix Studio Pro project to build a responsive photo album app, select a blank native mobile template, and configure git workflow with domain and data models.

Create an import mapping to connect JSON to entities, expand all, use checkout, and log details for troubleshooting as you prepare the dummy model input.

Add a macro flow in Mendix, drag and configure an input parameter, set up a rest api call with import mapping, and update the app object to refresh the UI.

Build a Mendix page using design and structure modes, add data views connected to a rest API, map input data models, and configure a macro flow with tables.

Create the input macro flow by mapping user input to the input variable and returning a new input object for the rest service call. Test and run the app.

Run and test the Mendix app, publish to cloud or run locally, and verify REST API integration with UI built from JSON and macro flows.

Create a domain model with an order entity and an order item entity, defining attributes like order ID (number, default 1) and quantity (integer, default 0) and a one-to-many relationship.

Update the home page by adding a navigation item with a dollar icon linking to the order new/edit page, and set the mode to overview for the next data-writing step.

Create mappings for the API by adding a message definition (MD), selecting the other entity, and ensuring all relevant items are checked, while noting a UI quirk.

Configure the rest service by adding a get order by id resource with a path variable parameter and create a macro flow for this operation.

Design the app using Mendix to publish and retrieve images through a REST API, recreate the domain model, and use microflows for backend logic.

Begin by initializing a Mendix no-code app with a blank web app named CMS image API, selecting the latest 10.6.1 version, and launching the upload to get started.

Learn how to create 64 by 64 png icons for entities in a dummy model, including publishing and retrieving the image, resizing it, and marking the step as optional.

Create the CMS image domain model with auto-number image ID, a 200-character title, and an unlimited description, then add a performance index and generate an overview page for testing images.

Rename the default home to CMS home web, add a CMS image entry with a camera icon to the navigation, and test the app with data via REST APIs.

Explore api specs with swagger to inspect a rest api; view and test endpoints such as get all, post, delete, and get back key on the local server.

Update the get_by_key microflow by setting the http header to image content and a 200 status, enabling png, gif, jpeg, or bmp, and test the flow for swagger image display.

Run and test the APIs to verify image responses, check multiple formats (png and svg), ensure proper image content type, then export phase two and plan postman testing.

Design and plan the flow to publish and retrieve PDF files via a rest API, using the application/pdf content type and an HTML widget for the UI.

Initialize the Mendix app, select version ten, create a new blank web app, and prepare a 64 by 64 pdf icon by editing and resizing an image.

Learn to test and verify REST APIs using Postman by creating a CMS pdf service API collection, uploading PDFs, and performing create, update, and delete operations.
