JavaScript/jQuery TileView - Overview

The TileView UI component contains a collection of tiles. Tiles can store much more information than ordinary buttons, that is why they are very popular in apps designed for touch devices.

The following code adds a primitive TileView to your page.

jQuery
HTML
JavaScript
<div id="tileViewContainer"></div>
$(function() {
    $("#tileViewContainer").dxTileView({
        dataSource: [
            { text: "Alabama" },
            { text: "Alaska" },
            { text: "Arizona" },
            // ...
        ]
    });
});
Angular
HTML
TypeScript
<dx-tile-view 
    [dataSource]="tileViewData">
</dx-tile-view>
import { DxTileViewModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    tileViewData = [
        { text: "Alabama" },
        { text: "Alaska" },
        { text: "Arizona" },
        // ...
    ];
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxTileViewModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue
<template>
    <DxTileView :data-source="dataSource"/>
</template>

<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { DxTileView } from 'devextreme-vue/tile-view';

export default {
    components: {
        DxTileView
    },
    data() {
        return {
            dataSource: [
                { text: 'Alabama' },
                { text: 'Alaska' },
                { text: 'Arizona' },
                // ...
            ]
        };
    }
}
</script>
React
import React from 'react';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { TileView } from 'devextreme-react/tile-view';

const dataSource = [
    { text: 'Alabama' },
    { text: 'Alaska' },
    { text: 'Arizona' },
    // ...
];

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <TileView dataSource={dataSource}/>
        );
    }
}

export default App;

Note that field names in these data source items are conventional. This provides a default tile appearance, which can be customized later.

By default, the UI component is oriented horizontally, but you can orient it vertically using the direction property.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#tileViewContainer").dxTileView({
        // ...
        direction: "vertical"
    });
});
Angular
HTML
TypeScript
<dx-tile-view ...
    direction="vertical">
</dx-tile-view>
import { DxTileViewModule } from "devextreme-angular";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
    // ...
}
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        // ...
        DxTileViewModule
    ],
    // ...
})
Vue
<template>
    <DxTileView direction="vertical"/>
</template>

<script>
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { DxTileView } from 'devextreme-vue/tile-view';

export default {
    components: {
        DxTileView
    }
}
</script>
React
import React from 'react';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.common.css';
import 'devextreme/dist/css/dx.light.css';

import { TileView } from 'devextreme-react/tile-view';

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <TileView direction="vertical"/>
        );
    }
}

export default App;
