Build your first view

Views are your app's pages, and the builder is where you assemble them. This page walks you from an empty view to a working dashboard with a record detail page.

1. 1

   Create a view

   In the Views module, add a general view (a block grid) or a form view (data entry — see Forms). Give it a name and an icon; it appears in your app's navigation, which you can arrange into sections.

2. 2

   Add blocks

   Press Add block to open the palette and pick from the 21 block kinds. Start simple: a stat row on top, a table below. Drag to arrange, resize by the corner — the canvas is a 12-column grid.

3. 3

   Configure in the inspector

   Selecting a block opens its inspector: source table, visible fields, sort, and the block's own settings. Everything on the canvas is the real thing — the builder renders live data as you work.

4. 4

   Add a record page

   Create another general view with a record block, keep it hidden from navigation, and set your table's Row clickto open it. Blocks on that page can filter to the current record — "this customer's orders" — via record filters.

5. 5

   Preview as your users

   The preview dropdown renders the app as any user — their role, their row filters, their visibility rules — so you catch permission surprises before your team does.
