Episode 34: What We’ve Been Building: Web viewers and Javascript

This episode of the DevCast looks at how JavaScript, HTML, JSON, Web Viewers, and AI can work together to build more flexible and dynamic FileMaker solutions. A few of our devs walk us through real-world examples, like a multi-image upload and rotation tool and a dynamic dining room and table management interface.The conversation strides into a bigger question: How much do you really need to understand when AI is writing the code for you? Our devs discuss finding the right balance between letting AI handle the heavy lifting and understanding enough of what's happening under the hood to build, test, troubleshoot, and maintain a reliable solution.Multi-Image Upload Blog Pt. 1: https://www.portagebay.com/blog/multi-image-uploading-with-gallery-and-rotation-free-demo/Multi-Image Upload Blog Pt. 2: https://www.portagebay.com/blog/using-webviewers-to-add-functionality-for-field-technicians/
