Hi James! Thanks for the reply! Yes, now its working and the app is going considerably faster, which is a big win and will keep us in Adalo for a bit longer.
Using my moment of glory, this 3 little details would have improve my onboarding experiencie + development speet by a lot:
- When selecting a property from my external collection, its incredible painfull to find the correct property, specially when databases get bigger. For context, I have some Airtable bases with 400+ properties, and in order to just select one I need to go to the data collection, open the external collection, find the property and move it manually to the top. Otherwise is impossible to find. Just by adding a “search” in the list of properties (like you did with pages) would save me a significant amount of time.
- When I first started using Adalo, I almost stopped because of how frustrating it is to write in the “Text” space of components. It goes crazy and totally unpredictable. To show you how much of a pain it is, I always use Adalo with a google doc open next to it, just to write the text and then paste it.
- When you update an external collection, if enough records have a certain property empty, Adalo stops reading that property. This has caused my app to crush multiple times.
Thanks for everyhting! Love Adalo, and I think your value prop is super clear
