Mendix is ​​launching a new version of its low-code development platform. AI is the code word, thanks in part to the launch of Maia.

Mendix announces Mendix 10.2, the new version of its low-code development platform. Not surprisingly, the update focuses exclusively on AI. Mendix wants to make AI as accessible as possible and is doing so, among other things, by introducing its own artificial assistant for developers. In addition, it also provides users with the tools to implement AI easily and safely.

• Mendix Chat: Provides detailed answers to questions about developing with Mendix, based on documentation and forums.
• New Recommenders: The Workflow Recommender provides suggestions for user tasks and workflow items to speed up development. Updates to the Logic Recommender and Best Practices Recommender improve recommendation accuracy.

Mendix also aims to provide users with the tools they need to quickly and easily implement AI in their own environment. Mendix Conversational UI Kit Provides easy integration of AI chatbots into Mendix applications. Improved compatibility with Amazon Bedrock and OpenAI connectors.

The new RAG feature helps generate specific content based on your own data. In addition, the AI ​​Bot Starter app offers the ability to develop chatbots and virtual assistants in minutes, compatible with Microsoft Azure, OpenAI and Amazon Bedrock. These new features accelerate the creation of various applications, from mobile apps to business process automation.

Simplicity is one thing, but security is also important. Management is centralized in Mendix 10.2 to control access for only the right people. With DevSecOps in mind, developers can deploy applications reliably and easily, while automated testing ensures quality and compliance.
