Enterprise Components

Kitto^x Enterprise includes advanced components not available in the Open-Source edition. These components extend the framework with additional tools, report engines, and development features.

For a complete comparison between the two editions, see the Feature Matrix. For the commercial overview of the Enterprise edition (why choose it, pricing, contact) see Kittoˣ Enterprise.

Desktop Embedded Mode

The Desktop Embedded Mode allows wrapping a Kitto^x application inside a native Windows desktop window using Microsoft Edge WebView2 (TEdgeBrowser). The application looks and behaves like a traditional desktop application — no address bar, no tabs, no bookmarks.

Report and Export Tools

ReportBuilder Tool

The ReportBuilder Tool controller generates reports using the ReportBuilder Enterprise engine. It supports server-side report rendering with optional design mode for end-user customization.

WARNING

Requires a separate commercial license from Digital Metaphors.

FlexCel Export Tool

The ExportExcelTool controller with FlexCel support generates Excel files using the TMS FlexCel engine. It supports advanced formatting, formulas, and template-based export.

WARNING

Requires a separate commercial license from TMS Software.

DebenuQuickPDF Tool

The MergePDFTool controller uses the Debenu QuickPDF library for PDF merging and manipulation, including QR code generation and document composition.

KIDE — The Kitto^x IDE

KIDE is a dedicated development environment for Kitto^x applications. It provides:

• Two-way YAML editor — edit metadata as tree or raw YAML, changes sync both ways
• Model import and generation — import database tables as Kitto^x models with automatic field mapping
• View and Layout visual editor — drag-and-drop grid columns and form fields with auto-generation
• Menu and Home view creation — scaffold the application structure from models
• Code-checking — validate YAML metadata against the current model definitions
• Resource editor — manage images, JavaScript, and CSS files

For details, see the KIDE documentation.

Advanced User/Function Profiling

The Enterprise edition includes enhanced user profiling capabilities with fine-grained function-level access control, extending the base Access Control system.

InstantSolutions Framework Integration

Kitto^x Enterprise integrates with the InstantSolutions Framework for building complex business applications with advanced data management patterns.
