developers and it's our job to create products to support them to
build it" Wix CEO at Wix DevCon 2022
NEW
YORK, Sept. 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Wix.com
Ltd. (NASDAQ: WIX), a leading global SaaS platform to create,
manage and grow an online presence, today completed the first ever
Wix DevCon 2022, which consisted of Wix expert-led presentations
and various product announcements, all of which were built by
developers for developers. The new tools are focused on the
expansion of the Wix product suite providing more control and
customization for professional web developers.
"Over the last 12 years we have worked hard on building Wix to
be a more robust platform with many solutions to better
support developers. Now, we're committed to opening Wix's business
building blocks to further enable web professionals to create
custom, robust online experiences using code," said Avishai Abrahami, Co-Founder and CEO of Wix.
"I'm proud of how far the platform has come and the opportunity to
showcase our latest developments at Wix DevCon 2022 and we will
continue to innovate and support developers as they trailblaze the
future of web creation."
"Web development is at the core of Wix, evolving from solely a
no-code platform supporting self-creators, to today, introducing
our next phase to meet the needs of developers as they embark on
their web development journeys," said Yoav
Abrahami, Chief Architect and Head of Velo at Wix Code.
"Developers are building longer and more complex projects than ever
before, making it imperative for them to have more customizable and
collaborative experiences. This is why we're not just rolling out
new features, we are changing our infrastructure to be congruent
with the future of web development. The best part is that we're
just getting started; we'll continue to open and expand the
platform to further accelerate more powerful digital
solutions."
Product Releases &
Integrations
Propel the Simplified Use of
Advanced Web Development Components
Wix Blocks, enables professional designers and developers to
create an application with the ease of drag and drop and then
package it as a full application with the power of the Velo code,
collections and back-end code in one powerful solution. The visual
design workspace provides a high-velocity ecosystem enabling users
to build their own highly-customizable and reusable applications
and widgets across sites built on Wix and Editor X. Developers
and designers can work concurrently and collaboratively on the same
project without strong dependencies on each other, through the
separation of business logic and UX/UI. This enables complete
optimization of web development and management for both developers
and designers. For example, when an application is built the
designer can create different versions of UX and UI with the same
business logic to be used across various sites, eliminating
duplicative efforts and significantly increasing their workflow
capabilities.
Unlock the Full Functionality of
eCommerce
Wix is redefining eCommerce with a new open platform that
provides developers the freedom to engineer custom eCommerce
experiences for any business need at a higher velocity. The
platform provides the flexibility to build scalable, online
businesses whether working with a business that provides a service,
appointment booking, event tickets, or products. By opening the
first set of eCommerce APIs, users can integrate any catalog of
sellable items to Wix and build any business on top of it, add
additional fees to the checkout and order functionality, introduce
their own logic and 3rd party integrations for discount rules and
shipping options at checkout.
Collaborative Coding, a new
integration with Git
Wix is opening a Velo integration with Git and Github, extending
Velo from single developer use to teams. Currently available on
Editor X, the Git integration enables developers to create and
manage sites as a team, use any integrated development environment
(IDE), integrate with CI / CD workflows and incorporate automated
testing and verification tools. The Wix Git integration allows
developers to work within a more stable and standard environment
and provides more transparency to better mitigate problems.
