Custom widgets in Appsmith are super-powerful, but they require a little bit of frontend experience to set up. We set out to change that, enabling anyone to build their own custom widget without writing a single line of code!
Last week Appsmith released a new Custom Widget Co-pilot, allowing devs to create completely new UI components from only a text prompt!
What makes this new feature so powerful?
<ul>
<li>Contextual Memory: Iterate on designs as you chat with the co-pilot.</li>
<li>Integrated Data Model: Co-pilot understands your data, customizing the output to fit the schema of your datasource.</li>
<li>No API Key Required: Leverage AI without the subscription fees.</li>
</ul>
Now you can quickly and easily build any interface you want, while leveraging the Appsmith platform to manage datasources, user authentication and security.
