FileMaker 19 includes add-on modules that can quickly add new functions to your solution including calendars, kanban boards, charting, heat maps, timers, and more. In addition to the pre-built add-ons, developers can create their own add-ons and make them available to other FileMaker users with the “Create your own Add-On” option using the script step “Save a Copy as Add-on Package.” The previous add-ons are still there as well: action items, addresses, attachments, companies, email addresses, general info, inventory transactions, notes, people, phone numbers, and topics.

Sometimes for beginners needs to understand that use of this feature can fail their existing solution if the Add-ons are from not trusted sources. Stephen Dolenski and Steven Blackwell prepared a short article with some cautionary notes related to the new Add-On feature in FileMaker® Pro 19. All developers should review.
