Dwolla’s drop-in components library allows developers to leverage isolated functions or build connected flows in their web applications, which expedites the integration process with the Dwolla Platform. Each component within Dwolla’s drop-in components library includes HTML, CSS and JavaScript that developers can drop-in and customize to fit the look and feel of their application.
The library comes with a collection of low-code components that solve for a variety of functions and flows including: create a customer, document upload, balance display, as well as a connected flow for accepting incoming payments from a user.
Each drop-in component contains built-in features such as responsive design, custom styling, error handling and more. These components allow developers to ship more with fewer lines of code— while improving readability and maintainability of their application’s code.
As the library continues to grow, Dwolla will evaluate adding support for other frameworks and languages based on feedback from the community.
Use of Dwolla’s drop-in components requires client-side and server-side interaction between your application and Dwolla. A unique “client token” is generated with limited permissions to be used in the components library to authenticate requests to Dwolla.
A quick overview of the steps involved:
Dwolla’s drop-in components are customizable to match the look and feel of your application down to the individual HTML element by applying styles via custom CSS classes. Preview the create an Unverified Customer component below, or refer to the drop-ins examples repo to view a list of all drop-in component examples.
Dwolla's UI components library contains a variety of supported components that represent isolated functions or connected flows. Each component requires a unique “client-token” and Customer ID for the end user that is performing the action in your web application. This section outlines the complete list of supported components which includes: the component name, css classes for customization, and the required client-token action.
