    Ep20: How FM BetterForms Can Modernize FileMaker-Powered Web Apps

    In Episode 20 of the FileMaker DevCast, join our Portage Bay developers as they talk web apps. Charles, Jacob, Joe, John, Mike, & Russell discuss the nuances of deciding what approach to use when integrating FileMaker data with a web front-end. Do you stick with WebDirect, branch out to using FM BetterForms, or commit to full-stack development? WebDirect has an advantage of proven simplicity. But it also comes with limitations, such as a non-standard web experience and licensing costs for public-facing applications.  FM Better Forms can be an excellent fit when you want to provide a polished, web-based user experience while still leveraging your FileMaker expertise. FM BetterForms can reduce development complexity by handling the back-end integration, deployment, and maintenance tasks that would normally be required in a full-stack web app approach. It also includes common front-end libraries - such as Tailwind, Bootstrap, and Lodash - that are kept updated for you. (NOTE: FM BetterForms is not currently compatible with FileMaker Cloud, since Cloud does not yet support XML web publishing.)

    Ep18: JSON: With Guest Matt Navarre of Navarre Training

    Enjoy Episode 18 of the FileMaker DevCast as our developers discuss JSON, along with special guest Matt Navarre of Navarre Training. We explore the latest tools, techniques, and best practices for using JSON to build fully capable custom applications in FileMaker.   "Basically, if you're a FileMaker developer, at this point ... you cannot afford not to get really good at using JSON. It's ... no longer really an option, even for just regular FileMaker use." - Matt   Some of the areas we talk about are efficiently handling large data sets, integrating with web technologies, and making use of the built-in JSON support within FileMaker.    Matt Navarre is a veteran developer whose expertise dates back to the early days of FileMaker version 1 (released 4/1/1985). He has a long and successful history in the FileMaker community and today dedicates his time to providing expert training in FileMaker development.   Visit him at navarre.training to continue the conversation and see the class options available, both free and paid, along with other resources.

Mike is a seasoned FileMaker developer with over 35 years of experience and discusses his transition from running a one-person business to joining Portage Bay for continuity of care, shared expertise, and collaboration. He shares his approach to database development, emphasizing simplicity and client involvement, and answers several questions from his new coworkers. Mike showcases two of the many solutions he’s created - one for a painting company and one for an artist’s collection of works. He explains his choices in implementing features such as proposal templates, using hamburger menus versus button bars, and following an achor buoy methodology. Mike also recounts his most challenging project - integrating Google Maps for a well-drilling non-profit in Africa that needed to map the locations of and distances between 3,600 wells. We are delighted that Mike has joined our development crew and we think you’ll enjoy hearing from him as well.
