My goal: We are working on a feature on a mobile app create with retool, assume the app is used to fill out details of sorts on a form based type page, the forms are filled out maybe daily and some parts of the form aren't mandatory till maybe the end of the week, once the end of the week comes around the app should showcase all the entries for each day of the week and highlight those missing information fields in red , so the user has a better time navigating and filling in the required information before submitting it at the end of the week. walk me through how create such a thing on retool

I’m an intern new to Retool so its rather new to me, i spent the past 2 or 3 days learning through Udemy basic course and AI walking me through things. Whats the optimal approach to learning retool to tackle the areas neede to be able to produce my end goal? this is the supposed rough description of the task I will be getting on tomorrow.

rereading this post my english seems fried after spending a good amount of hours playing around with retool then trying to demo the end goal on a form page where the road bumps have left to my head feeling heavy and my english skills whack, some issues i’ve a faced is fetching data from the retool database into the list collection for the weekly view. the query used to fetch the weekly data:
SELECT * FROM weekly_form_entries WHERE user_id = {{ current_user.id }} AND week_start_date = {{ currentWeekStart.value }}

Hey @BlurCantCode !

Retool has a “Retool University” Retool Docs which does a really good job at the basics

I also have to give a personal rec of tools.dev (have to shill my own team’s amazing work)
