I am starting from scratch to create an app that collects data from user input, stores it and then has an output based on those inputs. most of the tutorials so far seem to be data retrieval from a table. Can anyone recommend a tutorial or best path for making the interactive forms to query the user and collect the data?

To build a Glide app that collects user input and gives results, start by creating a User Inputs table in the Data Editor with columns for the information you want to collect. Enable User Profiles so each user’s data is stored under their account. Then add a Form Button to let users submit their details this saves automatically to your table. Create another screen to show results based on the data, using filters and computed columns (like Math or If-Then-Else) to calculate or display personalized outputs. In short, you need a data table for storage, a form for input, and a results screen to display the outcome.
