Appfarm Create includes a library of UI components to enable you to quickly build a and connect it to your and . Simply drag and drop a UI component into a view and configure the properties and styles as required.

UI components are implemented using Google's Material Design system for user interface design, specifically Material 3. For more information about Material 3, including guidelines, principles, and inspiration visit .

Examples

Examples of many of the UI components are available in our . You can view the demos, as well as access the setup in Appfarm Create. Don't have access? .

You can add UI Components to your UI with drag & drop, by clicking the UI Component (will add it after the selected UI Component inside the selected View/Dialog/Drawer), or by using (CTRL + k / CMD + k -> Seach by name -> Add the UI Component).

Layout

Layout components form the hierarchy of a view and are used to display content and navigation.

Data input

Data input components enable the user to enter and select data of various types. They can be used to build forms, client filters, and other UI features that rely on user interaction.

Data iterators

Data iterator components are used to display data from multiple objects in a data source.

Buttons

Button components are used to add interactivity and provide the user an opportunity to trigger an action.

Visuals

Visual components are used to display both static and interactive data.

Basic charts

Advanced charts
