The most important criteria for choosing the optimal data source setup for Flexmonster is the amount of data you have - your data volume. If you have some hesitations about which combination of the data source and Flexmonster will work the best for you - take a look at useful shortcuts we propose you below:
We’ve made great progress since our last summer release. This time we deeply worked on memory that component uses in a browser. You often have this question "How much data Flexmonster component can handle?". Being a client-side tool, it mostly depends on browser memory. Thus, we have been working on optimizing the component’s memory usage, especially when dealing with large amounts of data.

We had this one frequent request from our clients that we’ve decided to fulfill. It’s not a secret that the dark UI trend that has started in the 2016 and still follows us in the design world.
We are not going to convince you to go to the dark side (are we?) but we have a lot of clients, who prefer dark style in their applications. So, for those who use it or are going to use it, we’ve made the predefined Dark Theme that you can use right now by adding just one line of code.

This blog post tells about the most popular date- and time-related issues our clients reported while analyzing data from databases, CSV, or JSON. We are happy to suggest a new simple approach which helps to manage time zones effectively. (more…)
