Methods, computer readable media, and devices for rapid prototyping of both user experience and technical features in a combined approach. One method may include creating a set of known user experience (UX) components including a user interface element representing at least one of a data element and a data interaction, creating a UX screen including a set of UX elements within a UX prototyping tool, translating the UX screen into a set of standardized UX components, publishing the set of standardized UX components by mapping the set of standardized UX components to synthetic data, and validating a technical aspect of the published set of standardized UX components based on user interaction with the published set of standardized UX components.

Methods and systems for improved generation of user interfaces based on data schemas are provided. In one embodiment, a method is provided that includes receiving a data schema file and identifying a data schema within the data schema file. The data schema file may identify valid data for a computing service, such as an API. The data schema may be provided to a validation service, which may test whether a plurality of sentinel values comply with the data schema. An error message may be received from the validation service and a user interface element may be selected based on the error message. The user interface element may be added to the user interface.

A method or apparatus for viewing information stored in a specified folder-tree on a hierarchy form composed by a plurality of forms, wherein tagname-chains are obtained by merging one or more child-folder-name-chains, thereafter the tagname-chains are located on constituent forms of the hierarchy form in such a way that a first tagname-chain provided as a condition tagname with a tagname belonging to another second tagname-chain is located only on open forms, and an icon of information stored in the folder-tree is displayed in a cell of an open form, the full-pathname of which is in a specified relation with a set of the tagnames located in specified positions to the cell of the open form and the cell specified for the opening on the parent form, resulting in a decrease of a number of tagname-chains which users have to search in finding desired information on the hierarchy form.

Immersive web-based simulator for digital assistant-based applications is provided. A system can provide, for display in a web browser, an inner iframe configured to load, in a secure, access restricted computing environment, an application configured to integrate with a digital assistant. The application can be provided by a third-party developer device. The system can provide, for display in a web browser, an outer iframe configured with a two-way communication protocol to communicate with the inner iframe. The system can provide a state machine to identify a current state of the application loaded in the inner frame, and load a next state of the application responsive to a control input.

A method for generating a user interface is described. A script file for a software component is received, the software component being configured by source code that specifies a plurality of variables for the software component. The script file is parsed for markup language that describes a graphical user interface for the plurality of variables of the software component. A graphical user interface for modifying values of the plurality of variables of the software component is automatically generated using the markup language.

Disclosed herein are embodiments for processing a user interface (UI) using one or more parameters to capture user feedback. Embodiments operate by identifying one or more UI element codes in an information screen based on a parameter data structure. The embodiments request a set of responses from a database based on the parameter data structure. The embodiments generate a set of UI elements that capture user feedback based on the set of responses. The embodiments then present the information screen with the generated set of UI elements to capture user feedback.

Systems and methods for implementing fixed-layout display components embedded as part of a screen display of a device. In preferred embodiments, fixed-layout components may be utilized and managed independently of the remaining programmatically generated screen display functionality. A fixed-layout component may comprise a plurality of elements and be associated with user interactivities. Each element may be related positionally, dimensionally and display sequence to an overall component and to other elements comprised such that a computed relative position, size and dimension aspect ratio of component items and the item display sequence is maintained programmatically and visually relative to each other irrespective of a screen size or orientation when the fixed-layout component is part of an overall display of a device. The fixed-layout elements may further be operable to display dynamic data which may be logically associated with data comprised within the overall fixed-layout component.

According to an aspect, there is provided a computing device for performing the following. The computing device maintains, in a database, a first deviation detection algorithm for evaluating values of a first deviation metric. The computing device obtains, in the code editor, a plurality of logical lines of code and performs, for at least one logical line of code, the following. The computing device evaluates, using the first deviation detection algorithm, for a program instruction defined in a logical line of code, a value of the first deviation metric based at least on one or more other program instructions. The computing device selects a first color based on the first deviation metric from a first colormap. Finally, the computing device colors, in part or fully, a background or a text of the logical line of code or a graphical element associated with it with the first color.
