Start with JVx
We're happy to announce VisionX 6.0.351
The new version is full with updates. It doesn't contain many new features but many new possibilities because of Java 21, JavaFX 23, latest reactUI, flutter UI and an updated Previewer app.
Before starting with VisionX 6, PLEASE read our update guide and also additional information about our Previewer app update.
What's new?
- Disable translation
It's possible to disable the translation temporary while you design your application, because sometimes it's not good to show translated labels/names immediate. The VisionX button in your application now contains a checkbox. This doesn't change your application, only temporary in VisionX.
- Improved layout drag/drop
We changed dragging and dropping elements for our layouts a little bit, to show gaps. This is not a big thing, but it just looks right now.
- Java 21
- JVx application framework 3.0
- Apache Tomcat 11 support
- Postgres database 14
- ARM64 support (Apple silicon (M1), linux, windows)
- Version update for all AddOns and Modules
As usual, VisionX 6.0.351 is available in the download area for our customers or as trial.
Have fun!
We're happy to announce VisionX 5.11.615
The new version is fully backwards compatible and contains many improvements. It also fixes some reported problems and brings new features. This version is the last version of series 5 and we didn't change bigger blocks. The 5.11.615 should be a great final version of VisionX 5. We already started development of VisionX 6 and it will bring some bigger changes because we'll update to Java 21. We also will update our embedded postgresql database. We'll update to our latest react based UI and also to latest mobile app. We have some great features in the pipeline for all of you.
... back to VisionX 5.11.615

We're happy to announce VisionX 5.10.851
The version comes with the latest release build of our react user interface and support for our latest mobile application.
We recommend the update because it's backwards compatible and you get all bugfixes which were reported by all VisionX users.
What's new?
The main focus was on bugfixes but we alwo have two new features:
- Configure a home screen for your application
The home screen is always shown if no other screen is open.
- Export a Docker definition for the application without database container
As usual, VisionX 5.10.851 is available in the download area for our customers.
Have fun!
VisionX 5.11.50 EarlyAccess version is available for all our customers.
The version contains our latest libraries and bugfixes, especially our react UI and flutter UI. Both UIs are included in VisionX 5.11.50.
The mobile Browser previewer is now built with Flutter 3.19.2.
With EA version it's now possible to create a docker container definition file only for the application server. Usually both containers were created as docker compose definition file. The EA version also tries to solve the problem with different database ports for the embedded database. It should just work without limitations.
An EA version is not intended for production use, but is great for development.
Have fun!

We're happy to announce VisionX 5.10. It's a really powerful version.
The exact version number is 5.10.511.
The version comes with the latest release build of our react user interface and support for our latest mobile application. We recommend react UI but we still have our good old vaadin UI on board. Our vaadin UI is still a good decision and we also continue development. No worries. As we told you in VisionX 5.9 release notes, all new cool features will be available for react UI only. In latest react UI we also bundled our latest design mode feature.
We recommend the update to 5.10 of all previous versions because it's backwards compatible and you get lots of new features and all bugfixes which were reported of all VisionX users. If we release AddOn updates, we target the new VisionX version and it's not guaranteed that old VisionX versions will get the updates.
If you plan using mobile apps, also update to 5.10 because we'll release an update of our VisionX app in the next days. This app requires VisionX 5.10 or later.
What's new?
The main focus was on bugfixes, react UI and mobile.
- New calendar component
- Using application specific web content folder
- Native mobile app production ready (enhancement)
- reactUI production ready (enhancement)
- VisionX app ready (enhancement)
As usual, VisionX 5.10.511 is available in the download area for our customers.
Have fun!

VisionX 5.9.700 EarlyAccess version is available for all our customers.
The version contains our latest libraries and bugfixes. As usual, react UI and flutter UI got some updates. Both UIs are included in VisionX 5.9.700.
Our reactUI is already production ready, but it's still not the default UI for web browsers. We'll change this in one of the next releases.
The mobile Browser previewer app is now built with Flutter 3.10.4.
The EA version doesn't contain many new features, because we took time to work on something new. We can't tell you details, but it's incredibly cool!
What's next?
We plan to release an update of our mobile VisionX app with version number 2.9.0. It's already feature complete, but needs some tests. Should be ready by the end of next week.
An EA version is not intended for production use, but is perfect for development.
Have fun!
