Curious about one thing. Are Pages structured similar to Apps where the full database is cached locally and any actions against the data happens on the local copy before being synced to the server…or do Glide Pages have more of a server driven database where data changes are posted back to the server and processed on the back end. Just trying to get a better understanding of how to handle situations with multiple users touching the same data at the same time.

For example if two user change data in an app, usually the last change wins, or a user will see old data if a change from another user hasn’t synced to all other user’s cached copy yet, before they start working with the data. As a web developer, I’m familiar with server driven databases and postbacks and how the server handles the backend processing rather than the frontend. I just wasn’t sure if Pages follows more of that approach, or if it’s moreso similar to the current approach that’s used for apps.

Glide pages currently operate almost identically to Glide apps. That said they internally are a massive overhaul in how the frontend and backend communicate (that being that they communicate via a very strict interface). This strictness is to enable some of the things I am sure you are curious about.

This looks very interesting, I did my 20-year sentence in the corporate world and don’t plan on going back. 🤪 But my suggestion regarding apps/spreadsheets would be to create a “project bundle” that might involve 2 apps, 1 or more spreadsheets, and Glide tables that could interact together. Right now it appears that if you built 2 apps from the same spreadsheet, they would not be able to share the benefits of the same Glide tables, which could mean a lot of duplicated work. By paying for a project bundle, this also might give more flexibility with pricing.

Congratulations - another great feature.

IMHO I would have assumed the feature could be offered at no extra cost with a pro-App subscription. I rarely need to upgrade from Basic to pro and this would have helped boost the value proposition.

Since it is fully responsive, would it make sense to just make a page app and use it on all platforms (web, iphone, android) ?

If I already paying Pro for the app & want to add pages using same data, I’d be ok with like 15-20% above base app license? That just off the top of my head.

So two things to report,

1. Login doesn’t send a pin (console error)
2. The Add modal isn’t triggering (for me anyway)

BUT HOLY CRAP! This is very sleek!  
Love the simplicity 🙂

Final Note: Will the container layout include a sort of columns eventually? (e.g., Whole | Half | Quater)  
That sort of thing…Cheers!

Joe, you are on a Glide forum thread, receiving email notifications. You should be able to unsubscribe.

We hope so! We have some ideas about how to do this but are not working on 2D layout yet.

Could you share the console error you’re seeing, please?

What do you mean by “app modal”?

Not sure if unlimited use would work for Glide but a tiered system

We have a similar issue with our platform as we continue to build and add more features, we have to keep changing the pricing model.

I think the pricing model will continue to change and refine, a balance between monetizing new valuable features that had significant value and then not making to expensive, you may need to charge for features initially at launch and then include them (FREE) in standard package in the future when you have other new great features to add, otherwise it will get expensive and complicated (this sometimes results in temp. loss of revenue when you stop charging for features → hard call to make when you need the money). A tiered system may help…

Some pricing thoughts…  
e.g first 10 apps at $x each  
and then next 20 at $x - y%  
next 30 at $x - z%  
… and so on

Standard app = $x ($35)  
Glide Page app = $y  
both apps looking at same sheets = $x + 25%
