  • Build full-fledged apps e.g. CRM, HR, Healthcare, etc
  • Drag and drop forms, lists, UI
  • Add workflow to automate processes
  • Extend via plugins
  • Apps are mobile optimized and cloud ready
  • Download ready made apps from the Joget Marketplace

With downloads and adoption from across the world since the first release in 2009, the current stable version is v4 which provided a host of new functionality as described in http://www.joget.org/joget-workflow-v4/


The next major release v5 is coming soon in 2015, and the following section describes the major new features and enhancements to be expected.

What’s New in v5?

New App Center


The user interface has been refreshed with the new App Center sporting a simplified, cleaner look.


New Admin Sidebar


For administrators and app designers, the new Admin Sidebar is easily accessible from almost everywhere, sliding out from the right for a consistent user experience.




New Web-Based Process Builder


A new web-based Process Builder is now available to enable process design from right within the browser.


The existing Workflow Designer client which uses Java Web Start technology is also available to offer alternative means of designing processes based on preference.

Improved App Generator


An improved App Generator greatly accelerates the building of an app by allowing administrators to rapidly generate an app directly from a form. It can generate lists, CRUD (create-read-update-delete) pages and processes.


Improved App Theme Flexibility


Underlying changes to the theme architecture allows for more flexibility and variations in themes for the front-end UI (Userview) for apps. A new modern theme is included using this new mechanism.


New Audit Trail For Forms


In addition to capturing audit trails of process activities, form data updates can now be automatically captured for auditing purposes as well.


New and Enhanced App Plugins


Several useful and enhanced app plugins are provided, for example an Advanced Form Grid (a dynamic grid embedded within a form) and the enhanced charting plugin which allows for more impressive graphs and charts.


Performance and Scalability Enhancements


Performance has been optimized by minimizing hotspots through refactoring and caching, showing improvements of up to 80% in some use cases thus supporting higher scalability and larger deployments.

1. Introduction Joget is an open source low-code/no-code application platform for faster, simpler digital transformation. Previously, we have seen how we can integrate Hyperledger Fabric with Joget .

It is also home for the cryptocurrency ADA. The blockchain operates on the Ouroboros proof-of-stake consensus protocol. Compared to first-generation proof-of-work mechanisms like Bitcoin, instead of relying on powerful machines solving complex cryptographic equations to achieve consensus and compete for block rewards, the proof-of stake mechanism relies on end users s

 “We think these applications are so compelling that we don’t just call them apps, we call them super apps… Super apps are applications that once you start using them, you’ll wonder just how you lived without them” - BlackBerry founder Mike Lazaridis. What is a Superapp?  In the early days of the smartphone revolution, BlackBerry founder Mike Lazaridis first coined the term “super app” (or “superapp”) in a MWC 2010 keynote speech . He defined them as “a closed ecosystem of many apps that people would use every day because they offer such a seamless, integrated, contextualized and efficient experience.” According to Gartner®, “a superapp is like a Swiss army knife with a range of component tools (miniapps) that the user can use and remove as needed”.  We consider superapps to be a single platform where miniapps are integrated, thus providing a seamless experience to its users. Here are some statistics and predictions from 2022 Gartner Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2023: Superapps
