SOFA is back, boldly meeting where we’ve never met before and we’re bringing it with a bang. Jason Wood has an awesome new creation, which I’ll let him introduce…

**Introducing FMVue**

The FileMaker web viewer opens the door to virtually unlimited UI design potential—but many developers haven’t fully embraced it.

While the rise of AI has made web development more accessible, hurdles like build tools or endless copy-pasting still hold people back.

That’s why Jason Wood (Define Database) created FMVue, a free tool that helps you build simple, powerful web viewer apps—right inside FileMaker—with a little help from AI.

In this session, Jason will demonstrate how FMVue works, and we’ll build some live examples together. Bring your ideas—especially the ones you’ve been putting off because it seemed like too much effort.

We’ll also take a look at how Define Database is using FMVue and the web viewer to generate print-ready PDF reports with a level of design polish that goes far beyond what’s possible with native FileMaker layouts.
