Flagship Release

GeneXus 15, the latest version of GeneXus, will be launched during the Meeting. This new version brings new additions for developers because it is centered on the user and integrates technology components that make up the digital world, such as the Internet of Things, Big Data and the Cloud. The new version will also include “Live Editing”, a feature that allows users to make changes “on the fly” as the app is developed, with no need for running Build or Deployment processes. When changing the look & feel of an application's user interface (and even its features), these changes are immediately reflected in the application. “For this version we focused mainly on the user experience, by improving the tool's interface, accessibility and adaptability, as well as its design features,” explained Gustavo Carriquiry, COO at GeneXus.
