The Oracle Visual Builder Cookbook is an essential tool in helping developers get up to speed with development techniques in Visual Builder. It provides code samples and instructions that help you implement various capabilities using Visual Builder. You have full access to the code for each of the demos either from our GitHub based repository, or more simply by creating a copy of the cookbook in your own Visual Builder instance (create a new application and base it on the cookbook app template).

The cookbook chefs – David Konecny, Priya Mishra, Vinay Agarwal, Walter Egan – are constantly adding more and more recipes to the cookbook – here is a list of some of the recent updates.

Data Grid Demos

Updated and improved DataGrid demos with three new recipes (Collections -> Data Grid):

Merged Grid Data

Responsive app recipes

A new VB app template example – “Dashboard Example Template” – which was created from above two recipes is available for you to base new apps on. The template is using the Oracle JET Stable theme so the look and feel can be further customized. You'll find the template as one of the options when you create a new VB app and choose a template.

Responsive Template

Editable table recipes

  • Editable table based on BufferingDataProvider – A new recommended way to implement editable table that is a bit simpler than ADP based editable table. BPD is delegating data loading to an SDP which helps when working with large data sets.

Dynamic UI recipes

More recipes

* Many Editable Rows (Application -> Patterns)
* Select-Many Demos (Application -> List of Values (LOV))
* Frozen Columns (Collections -> Table)
* Value Converter (Application -> Input Controls)
