The implementation of Forms has been completely rewritten to use React Native instead of React.

Also Messages, Tasks and the Business Cases now use the same underlaying technology. It allows us to use the same components for Native Mobile Apps.
This transformation the following implications for your project:

  • Custom-Adaption/Implementation in Handlebar Templates for messages/tasks/business-cases need to be migrated to React.Native. The HTML Rendering in handlebars is not used anymore. See Custom-Adaptions
  • Custom-Styling for messages/tasks/business-cases can‘t be done over the default website-styling (data/styles-src) anymore. Please use the Custom-Styling described in Custom-Styling
  • Custom-Styling for formgen (portal/formgen/styling) also need to be migrated to React-Native Styling. See also Custom-Styling
  • Formgen Custom Elements implemented in a project need to be rewritten to React-Native. Please refer to Custom-Adaptions
