Yesterday we released a new version of Magic. One of the things we're super jazzed about, is that Magic now automatically takes care of images in its CRUD generator. As you generate your CRUD app, you can now automatically have Magic take care of images, allowing you to treat images the same way you treat text.
The CRUD generator will also automatically resize images, and compress them by default - And if you've got a field named image, photo, or picture, it will default its handling to image type. Below is a screenshot of how it will look like as you're viewing items.
You can try this out by signing up for our CRUD generator here, for then to install and CRUDify the Northwind SQLite database. This comes in addition to the automatic row level security parts we implemented and released a couple of weeks ago. The idea is to make intelligent choices on the user's behalf, eliminating hassle - While also allowing the user to override these choices if they for some reasons don't fit the requirements.
Where the Machine Creates the Code
