In this show Brad Balassaitis returns to Ni9 to give us some great instruction on how to start using the “dGrowl” project with our XPages applications. This is a tool that lets you popup messages back to the user. It’s a somewhat common effect and I really really like it. Actually before I got this demo from him I was attempting to do something similar inside Bootstrap4XPages and now I might try and switch to dGrowl for the additional features.
In addition to using dGrowl there’s great information on installing the dojo plugin that could apply to adding other plugins to your applications as well.
UPDATE: Brad’s made a blog post on enhancing this even further.
