From Bonita Portal to Bonita Living Applications
We are pursuing the initiative of progressively migrating Bonita Portal to our UI Designer technology and transforming it into three applications, one per provided profile.
Each new page is provided as a new custom page that is responsive, that can be customized in the UI Designer, and used in any living application. This version includes :
- Install/Export Organization page for the Administrator Portal
- A new Bonita Layout is available to be used and customized in any Application.
There are also a lot of technical updates and of course, bug fixes.
Check out the release note and documentation for more details. All usual files are available from the download page.
