Before You Start



description:

Before you get started, think about what your application is for. Which information do you want to track? Which types of users do you want to have? Who will be able to view and change your data?

You may wish to start with a data model. If so, read our Brief Intro to Data Modeling.

Basic steps to creating a Qrimp app

  1. Designing your data model
  2. Create Tables
    • Option 1: Create Tables Manually
    • Option 2: Import Data
  3. Entering and Editing Data
  4. Customize your Application with
    • Views
    • Templates
    • Headers and Footers
    • Security
    • Menus

We recommend drawing out a list of tables and listing the columns you want to have before you get started. You can add additional tables, add rows, delete rows, change data types, and drop columns at any time, so nothing is set in stone. Having a structured idea of what type of database you will build before you start will save you time and help you mentally organize your information first.

There are many resources on the web that teach you about database methodology..

Of course, you can also get started with no learning, and figure it out as you go! A good place to start is by adding your first data table. There are two ways to add data: Create Tables and Import Data.
