Overview

This demo project shows the full capabilities of the new ArcGIS widget, based on React, the Pluggable Widgets API and the newest (02-2022) ArcGIS API 4.22.

The demo project creates GIS objects and layers / groups in the after startup. The demo project tries to be self explanatory; per each of the scenarios built into the demo project the configuration steps can be read on screen, but also be found within the page + widget settings in Studio Pro.

Features include:

1. Static (in widget settings) as well as dynamic (front end, in app) loading of layers
2. Optional custom markers for each layer
3. Optional marker clustering per layer
4. Fully configurable pop-up windows per layer with both attributes from Mendix as well as ArcGIS
5. Three types of add on widgets:
   1. Toggle layers pane (disable/enable layers by users)
   2. Search widget; let an end user search on location
   3. Legend: a legend entry for each layer. Also works with custom markers
