Hey Adalo Community! :waving_hand:

Iโ€™m excited to share a new component thatโ€™s now available on the Adalo Marketplace:

Are these free? Thanks.

Yes, Mark!

Great! For the date picker, would that work for like a payroll system? Letโ€™s say we can pick the pay-period. Would it allow us to do that? Can it sort certain records when pick โ€œfrom certaind dateโ€ to another date?

Thanks again.

Hi @AKyle

Thatโ€™s great addition. After testing it I have few suggestions for improvement -

  1. Ability to change the color of show more/less button.
  2. Markdown format not working. It will be great if the component support markdown format too.
  3. Option to choose font family (Heading or Body).
