Let’s talk about basic practices to use during developing the User Interface(OUTSYSTEMS)

  • Avoid using Preparation Data when using Screen Actions for a Particular screen in the designing level.
  • Most of the time, it is best to fetch the data again and again by using Aggregates
  • Use Ajax with care because it is a great tool to improve user usability and UI. Using Ajax with care avoids performance issues.
  • Try to split large screens into smaller segments or parts to reduce view state size and number of queries in the preparation
  • Use cached, generally when you are developing Web Screens or particularly Web Blocks when repeated use fields have the same result, therefore, saving the time of processing the screen/block over and over again in the designing stage. Particularly useful in AJAX queries that fetch or retrieve lookup data of preparation.
