Dear Community,

although I do have an IT background I am totally struggling in understanding some basic concepts of Glide. I understand the data driven approach but I`m still not able to make an easy form, table structure and reporting for a simplified archery training (tracking down data based on a form and make a reporting out of it) and integrate this into the menu / app.

Is there someone outhere who is willing to give me some insights and whom I can ask some (maybe stupid) questions to get on track again.

Thx  
Ben

Making a form in Glide is pretty straightforward using the built-in form screen. For more granular control you could try a custom form. Where exactly are you having trouble?

This is a simple concept app (copyable), that demonstrates the following techniques: Building custom forms for adding and editing list items (as an alternative to the native forms provided by Glide) Preventing duplicate new entries using [User Specific Columns](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/data-editor/user-specific-columns) and [Relations](https://docs.glideapps.com/all/reference/data-editor/computed-columns/relation-column) Enforcing mandatory input items The use of visibility conditions and user specific booleans to control user flow There is nothing particular…
