December 2023 Summaries

Frigade recently launched its Vanilla JavaScript SDK, which can be integrated into any JavaScript-based stack, including Node.js, and has since simplified its API and models based on user feedback. The SDK has made managing the lifecycle of Flows easier and now incorporates global event handlers, allowing developers to trigger actions as users progress through these Flows. Frigade plans to continue investing in this SDK, as it is set to become the cornerstone of their JavaScript-based software development kits.

The Vanilla JavaScript SDK by Frigade, suitable for any JavaScript environment including Node.js, has been significantly simplified following user feedback, enhancing the API and models for easier management of Flow lifecycles, such as marking flows and steps as completed. The SDK now includes global event handlers to facilitate application actions as users progress through flows, allowing state changes to be logged and acted upon. As it forms the basis for all of Frigade's JavaScript-based SDKs, further investments and developments in this SDK are anticipated in the coming months.

The launch of the Frigade Figma UI Kit aims to streamline the design process by allowing product teams to design with Frigade UI components in Figma at the same speed as building with React components. This kit includes highly configurable design elements for various components such as announcements, banners, checklists, and tours, enabling teams to easily duplicate the Figma file, establish a design system if desired, and customize components for integration into product designs. The initiative addresses the common practice of designing directly in production due to the speed advantage, promoting a more thorough design process while maintaining efficiency.
