Native Widgets

The Use Cases guide shows ways to use the APIs to create powerful business tools and flows without ever having to create new UI (user interfaces) because Fluid provides Core Elements to leverage.

However, this doesn't solve every need. For the times when you want to write your own native widget to load into the Desktop or Mobile app, you can do just that.

Custom UI When You Need It

Inside of your widget, you'll still have access to all the same data in these resources with the User API to leverage for your views. But now you can also:

  • Access Outside APIs - Connect to external services and data sources
  • Build Custom Interfaces - Design the exact user experience you need
  • Control Visibility - Have your widget available to drag on or off based on User demographics and access settings

React Components

The Desktop and Mobile apps will render your React components directly within the application, giving you full control over the user experience while maintaining seamless integration with the Fluid platform.

Widget Registration

To deploy a native widget, it will need to be added to Fluid's registry and you'll select the appropriate data sources to power the widget. This allows Fluid to properly manage permissions, data access, and widget visibility for your users.

Coming Soon: More detailed documentation on building and deploying native widgets is on the way.
