What are some best practices for creating and managing custom calculators or conversion tools in Con

[Ivan Lennet]

I am looking to create and manage custom calculators or conversion tools in Confluence for my team. Specifically, I’d like to implement tools like a square miles to acres calculator or similar conversion utilities that can be easily accessed and used by team members.

Has anyone successfully built such tools in Confluence? What are the best practices, plugins, or macros you recommend for creating interactive and user-friendly calculators?

For example, I’ve come across other calculators, such as this PC Bottleneck Calculator, which offer a seamless and efficient user experience. I’d like to replicate a similar approach for land measurement conversions.

Any advice or examples would be greatly appreciated!

For developing custom applications, Atlassian offers usage of Forge framework which is also hosted by Atlassian.

For Confluence, you have a sample application that has been developed and could be found here: https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/forge/build-a-hello-world-app-in-confluence/

It uses React components for frontend and Javascript/Node.js for the backend. It uses UI Kit and Custom UI components.
