  • Publication number: 20230236805
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to an improved software development platform that enables the dynamic generation and deployment of advanced electronic forms. The platform includes graphical user interfaces that enable users to drag-and-drop or otherwise insert components into a development window to define the content, functionality, workflow, background processes, and other criteria for the electronic forms. The components may correspond to pre-defined or pre-packaged software bundles that can be integrated into the electronic forms to define input fields, design layouts, application functions, preconfigured templates, and background processes. After electronic forms are completed, options can be selected to deploy the forms in a cloud-based environment or in other ways.

  • Patent number: 11593096
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, media, design structures, platforms, and other implementations, including a method that includes receiving, by a processor-based device, configuration data representative of an initial arrangement of interlinked components forming a data application, and determining based on the configuration data, by the processor-based device, one or more complexity scores indicative of levels of complexities for one or more portions of the initial arrangement of interlinked components forming the data application. The method further includes automatically reconfiguring, by the processor-based device, the initial arrangement of interlinked components based on the computed one or more complexity scores to produce a resultant arrangement of interlinked components forming the data application.
