- Rest Call From JsonGenerate the whole integration stack from a JSON payload: JSON structure, non-persistent entities, import mapping, and the REST CALL microflow. Use when starting from an example response and needing everything between it and a working microflow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Rest ClientCall external REST APIs from Mendix — the three approaches (inline REST CALL, consumed REST client document, generated from OpenAPI) and how to choose. Use when integrating with any external REST API.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Run AppBuild and start the Mendix app in Docker, and restart it after changes. Use when asked to run, launch or restart the app in a container. For the fast inner loop prefer run-local.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Run LocalThe warm Docker-free dev loop, `mxcli run --local` — model changes live in about a second, with watch, screenshots, metrics, tracing and external preview. Use for the fastest edit-to-running-app cycle, especially when driving the model programmatically with MDL.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Runtime Admin ApiCall the Mendix M2EE admin API on port 8090 directly — OQL, runtime info, and the rest, with curl examples. Use when querying a running app from a script, or when debugging connectivity to the admin port.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Scheduled Events And QueuesScheduled events (Mendix's cron) and task queues in MDL — the eight repeat variants and the fields each takes, and what a queue does and does not throttle. Use when running a microflow on a schedule, or bounding how many background tasks run at once.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- System ModuleReference for the built-in System module — User, FileDocument, Image, workflow and queue entities, and the associations you are allowed to make to them. Use when linking a record to System.User, handling file uploads, or working with workflow entities.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Test AppVerify a running Mendix app in a browser with Playwright, with OQL for data assertions. Use when asked to test or validate the app end to end, or to confirm that generated pages actually render.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Test MicroflowsWrite and run MDL-based microflow tests with `mxcli test` — annotations, file formats, and the warm local test loop. Use when testing microflow logic rather than the UI: return values, entity changes, control flow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Theme StylingThe SCSS workflow and its traps — where styling actually compiles, custom-variables.scss, themesource directories, hot reload, design-property errors, and the mxcli theme commands (apply, create --from a design, switchable sets, light/dark). Use when writing or debugging SCSS, when applying or building a theme, when giving an app a brand palette or design tokens, or when styling silently fails to appear.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- TranslationsTranslate a Mendix app's user-visible strings with MDL — DESCRIBE TRANSLATIONS to export one file per language, CREATE [OR MODIFY|REPLACE] TRANSLATIONS to write them back. Use when localising an app, filling in a language with an LLM, or auditing which strings are still untranslated. Covers why a translation can be stored and still never appear.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Upgrade Mendix VersionMove a project to a newer Mendix version headlessly, with no Studio Pro. Use when raising a project's Mendix version, when a build complains the project version does not match MxBuild, or before adopting a newer runtime. Covers the one check that decides whether a converter must run, and the two green false successes that upgrade nothing.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Validation MicroflowsValidation microflows for new/edit pages — attribute checks, feedback messages, and conditional validation chains. Use when a form needs input validation with messages shown against the fields.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Verify With OqlVerify microflow side effects and data changes with OQL against a running app. Use after executing changes to confirm data was created, updated or deleted as expected, or to back a browser test with a data assertion.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write LayoutsCREATE LAYOUT syntax — the frame a page is built on: scroll-container regions, the navigation tree, and the placeholders pages bind to. Use when a topbar, sidebar or page frame has to change, or when copying an Atlas layout into a module you own.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write Lint RulesWrite custom Starlark lint rules in .claude/lint-rules/ that run beside the built-ins under `mxcli lint`. Use when a project convention should be enforced automatically.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write MicroflowsMicroflow syntax reference in MDL — every activity type, control flow, expressions, and the mistakes that fail `mxcli check`. Use before writing any CREATE MICROFLOW, and when debugging a microflow syntax error.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write NanoflowsNanoflow syntax in MDL — shared with microflows, but client-side and restricted. Use before writing any CREATE NANOFLOW, when a nanoflow validation error needs explaining, or when deciding between a nanoflow and a microflow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write Oql QueriesWrite OQL for Mendix VIEW entities — joins, aggregates, calculated fields, and the syntax the runtime actually accepts. Use when creating a VIEW entity or building a report or analytics query.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write RulesWrite Mendix rules — a special kind of microflow returning a Boolean or enumeration, callable only from a decision. Use when writing CREATE RULE, or deciding whether logic belongs in a rule or a microflow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Write WorkflowsAuthor Mendix workflows in MDL — user tasks, decisions, parallel splits, jumps, waits and boundary events, with CREATE, ALTER and DROP. Use when building a business process with human steps, timers or parallel branches.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Xpath ConstraintsXPath constraint syntax for MDL — retrieve WHERE clauses, page data sources, and row-level entity access, including association paths and functions. Use when writing or debugging any XPath in a project.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Mendix Bulk Oql DmlRun set-based INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE against Mendix entities through OQL statements, which the runtime supports and Studio Pro cannot author. Use when a microflow would otherwise retrieve a large list and loop — applying rules across a table, copying a year of records, staging and promoting an import, archiving, backfilling a column — or when a nested retrieve-loop-commit is the reason a screen or a scheduled job is slow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Mendix Odata PushdownPush OData query options into the SQL of a Mendix resource served by a read microflow, so $filter, $orderby, $top, $skip, $count and the key lookup reach the database instead of being silently dropped. Use when publishing an OData resource over data Mendix has no table for — a warehouse view, a legacy database, a Databricks catalogue, a stored procedure, a CSV read through a connector — or when a published resource returns 200 with the wrong rows and nothing appears in the log.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Mendix Vega ChartsChart a Mendix app with Vega-Lite through a pluggable widget that takes the specification and the data as separate properties, so the model emits rows and never assembles a chart payload. Use when a Mendix project needs charts Studio Pro's own widgets do not cover — small multiples, faceted tables, sparklines inside a data grid, calendar heatmaps, brushed scatter plots, stream graphs — or when an agent is authoring charts from MDL rather than by hand.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
- Choose Edit ModeDecide how to change a document that already exists: ALTER, describe → edit → CREATE OR MODIFY, or a new document. The answer depends on who owns the document (your MDL scripts or Studio Pro). Use before editing anything in an existing app, before editing a project script that has no `mdl 1;` header, before re-executing DESCRIBE output, and before touching a Studio Pro-authored microflow or nanoflow.Votes: 0GitHub stars: 128
