Low-code integration development, simplified

System integration is the process of combining different systems and software so that they can work together. It is also the process by which a system or application can interact with other systems, applications, or devices. Because each integration is unique, it is crucial to ensure that the tool you use to facilitate that integration is flexible enough to cover many cases.

Is low-code viable for developers? - LowCodeCon 2022 Talk

This was a talk given by Shantoie Vorster at LowCodeCon 2022. We ask if low-code tools are viable for developers, especially in an enterprise environment. Shantoie tells about his experiences developing enterprise systems using low-code tools. These applications range from critical business processes, ETLs, APIs and more. The talk also includes a small demo of Linx to showcase the platform's potential in the hands of a developer.

Using OAuth2 to access Emails

OAuth 2.0 is becoming a popular alternative for application authentication. With Microsoft discontinuing Basic authentication and making OAuth 2.0 one of their new standards, many developers are sure to be in a situation where they need to change how they handle authentication for popular applications such as mailboxes, exchange services, and more. This article will briefly touch on OAuth 2.0, how it can be used, and an example of using it read mail from an Office 365 mailbox.

Expanding Functionality: Using the new Return function

Developing applications in Linx follows common programming paradigms. This means that it will use variables, loops and if statements in a similar fashion to a traditional programming language. With this in mind, a recent update (6.4.1) introduced the Return function. The Return function is the new standard for returning values to the result of a function or to exit a function at any point. This post will go over what the Return function does and how it can be used.
