Thank you for sharing. I understand that it is not something that I can easily make.
I was able to build what I needed, though.
For those who haven't used Retool before, let's set some expectations:
- Retool isn't something you can just pick up and use instantly. It requires some time investment to understand its intricacies. Accept that it has a steep learning curve. You won't be able to figure it out without an effort.
- You'll need to rely heavily on resources like past forum discussions and video tutorials (but some of them are out-dated), and be prepared for a lot of trial and error. If you're new to the platform, don't expect to build something in just an hour or two.
- You will get stuck – it's part of the process. Therefore, carefully consider whether the functionality you're aiming for is truly essential."
Resources I used to create a CRUD-like feature:
- Update:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1YfE9gSaoM (Clear explanation of updating records)
- /guided-tour ( First page when you sign-up and encounter )
- Insert:
- New: Add New Row Toolbar Button on Table (Official way of adding new records)
- Delete:
- Editable Table - best way to allow users to delete one or more rows? - #2 by alex

- Others
