Latest New productsBMX Web Components 2.1.0 · A colour picker, a transfer list, a review layer, a floor plan, and a workflow designer and engine

Colour picker — BMX Web Components
- New
<bmx-color-picker>, in every licence that carries the library: a colour field that opens a panel, or the panel in the page, with saturation, hue and opacity, and the value in hex, RGB, HSL or OKLCH. - NewYour brand colours and design tokens as swatches that follow the theme, recent colours, the eyedropper, and a live WCAG contrast check with one press to the nearest colour that passes. It goes into a form like any other field.
Transfer list — BMX Web Components
- New
<bmx-transfer-list>, in every licence that carries the library: two lists, available and chosen, and the moves between them — people to a role, columns to a report, fields to an export. - NewFilters on both sides, groups, locked items, ordering by drag or key, limits, your page’s say on every move, and a hundred thousand items drawn only as far as they are in view.
Review layer — BMX Web Components
- New
<bmx-review-layer>, in Hypernova Pro and Gold: comments pinned to any page — a design, a dashboard, a form, a document — and tied to its elements, so they follow the content as it reflows, scrolls and zooms. - NewReplies, @mentions of your own people, resolve and reopen, a list with filters and search, and every change offered to your page first. Threads go in and come out as JSON; nothing is stored or sent.
Floor plan — BMX Web Components
- New
<bmx-floor-plan>, in Hypernova Gold: desks, meeting rooms, seats, parking and lockers drawn where they really are, with their state now by colour and by pattern, chosen by pointer, keyboard or list and booked by your page. - NewFilters, zones, floors, zoom and pan; floor drawings as images or SVG, with marked shapes imported as spaces; live availability merged in; and an editor with snapping and undo.
Workflow designer and engine — BMX Web Components
- New
<bmx-workflow-designer>, in Hypernova Gold: approval and business processes in swimlanes by role, with formula conditions, who may take each action, time limits and escalation, a live problems list, and Simulate as each role. - New
<bmx-workflow-engine>, in Hypernova Gold: the task card for each step, with the actions open to the person signed in, comments, values and history, and your page asked before every action. The same engine ships as a module for Web Workers and Node, so your server checks every action too.
Live showcase
- NewFive new showcase pages: a brand theme with its contrast checked; people in a role and a hundred thousand products; a landing page under review and a contract signed off; desks booked from a live floor; and expense claims drawn, simulated and run.
Maintenance — BMX Web Components
- UpdateSmoother hover in the network graph, steadier scrolling in the code editor and the spreadsheet at high display scales, and tidier counts and history lines.
Hypernova Pro and Gold
- NewHypernova Pro and Gold now include the review layer, and Hypernova Gold the floor plan and the workflow designer and engine. The colour picker and the transfer list come with every web licence. See the pricing page. BMX Web Components moves to version 2.1.0, and the library grows from 91 web components to 97.
