Webix is a JavaScript/HTML5/CSS3 UI toolkit for developing complex and dynamic cross-platform web applications. [2] [3]
Webix consists of GUI controls, widgets, complex widgets and online tools: Snippet Tool, Form Builder, and Skin Builder. [4]
All widgets support drag and drop, [5] offline storage and synchronization, dynamic data loading and paging. They can be initialized from JSON data, HTML markup, XML data, or JavaScript calls.[ citation needed ]
Webix integrates with client-side libraries and frameworks like React, Angular and Vue.js, and with the Meteor full-stack framework. [6]
There are two versions of Webix library: Webix Standard and Webix PRO.
Webix Standard is free and open-sourced under the GNU GPLv3 license, [7] but can be used in applications distributed under the MIT, BSD and other open-source licenses via a FLOSS exception. Webix Standard includes 68 widgets and controls as well as 10 locales.
Webix PRO is available under a commercial license and includes extra functionality: 100 widgets and controls, plus 300 locales. The following features are included: additional DataTable functionality, saving and restoring application state, extra styling and customization, ability to use complex widgets: Pivot, Kanban, Spreadsheet, File Manager, and Scheduler. Complex widgets are available at extra cost.[ citation needed ]
A user interface markup language is a markup language that renders and describes graphical user interfaces and controls. Many of these markup languages are dialects of XML and are dependent upon a pre-existing scripting language engine, usually a JavaScript engine, for rendering of controls and extra scriptability.
The Visual Component Framework (VCF) is an abandoned open source project for development under Microsoft Windows and Apple Macintosh that is distributed under the BSD license. It is an advanced C++ application framework that makes it easier to produce GUI-based C++ applications. The framework is C++ design and has built in support for rapid application development. The framework is designed to be portable over multiple platforms and compilers.
Google Web Toolkit, or GWT Web Toolkit, is an open-source set of tools that allows web developers to create and maintain JavaScript front-end applications in Java. It is licensed under Apache License 2.0.
The Spry Framework is an open source Ajax framework developed by Adobe Systems which is used in the construction of Rich Internet applications. Unlike other pure JavaScript frameworks such as the Dojo Toolkit and Prototype, Spry is geared towards web designers, not web developers. On August 29, 2012, Adobe announced that it would no longer continue development of Spry and handed it over to the community on GitHub.
The Yahoo! User Interface Library (YUI) is a discontinued open-source JavaScript library for building richly interactive web applications using techniques such as Ajax, DHTML, and DOM scripting. YUI includes several core CSS resources. It is available under a BSD License. Development on YUI began in 2005 and Yahoo! properties such as My Yahoo! and the Yahoo! front page began using YUI in the summer of that year. YUI was released for public use in February 2006. It was actively developed by a core team of Yahoo! engineers.
This is a comparison of web frameworks for front-end web development that are heavily reliant on JavaScript code for their behavior.
Pyjs, is a rich web application framework for developing client-side web and desktop applications in Python. The resulting applications can be run in a web browser or as standalone desktop applications.
XPages is an IBM implementation of JavaServer Faces with a server side JavaScript runtime and the built-in NoSQL database IBM Domino. It allows data from IBM Notes and Relational Databases to be displayed to browser clients on all platforms.
Vaadin is an open-source web application development platform for Java.

WebSharper is an open-source and commercial web-programming framework that allows web developers to create and maintain complex JavaScript and HTML5 front-end applications in the F# programming language. Other than a few native libraries, everything is F# source.
There are different JavaScript charting libraries available. Below is a comparison of which features are available in each.
The Windows Library for JavaScript is an open-source JavaScript library developed by Microsoft. It has been designed with the primary goal of easing development of Windows Store apps for Windows 8 and Windows 10, as well as Windows Phone apps for Windows Phone 8.1, Windows 10 Mobile and Xbox One applications using HTML5 and JavaScript, as an alternative to using WinRT XAML and C#, VB.NET or C++ (CX).
OpenUI5 is a JavaScript application framework designed to build cross-platform, responsive, enterprise-ready applications. It is an open-source project maintained by SAP SE available under the Apache 2.0 license and open to contributions. OpenUI5's core is based on JavaScript, jQuery, and LESS. The library's feature set includes model–view–controller patterns, data binding, its own UI-element library, and internationalisation support.
jQWidgets is a software framework with widgets, themes, input validation, drag & drop plug-in, data adapters, built-in WAI-ARIA accessibility, internationalization and MVVM support. It is built on the open standards and technologies HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery. This library is used for developing responsive web and mobile applications. Some developers consider jQWidgets one of the top alternatives to the open-source jQuery UI.
