Hey guys! Do you think is possible to build a homepage slider? I broke my head trying to figure it out but I couldn’t think of anything. Any ideas?
Something like this:

You mean like a revolving carousel that displays products or photos?

I am sure it is not possible. The new swipe action is there but still requires manual movement. There might be workarounds.

Y Think manual movement is ok! I am building a MVP right now so it doesn’t have to be perfect. What I really need is a way to communicate the users what’s the app about. If you can think in any other way, it will be so much appreciated.

Those yellow dots are just the one that shows you that you can slide further.

Fantastic! Yes, you can easily create what you want.
you can even recreate that whole look 2 the T.
Question is are we letting users sign into the app or not?

It is not necessary for them to log in 
I will be super comfortable if they could def test the app before signing up

I am going to do a demo app for you. Might be easier. You can then just change the images. I might need 8 tabs or if lucky get away with 2…because you want a public version also (4 dots)
I am so impressed on how everything is possible on Glide with workarounds. Thank you so so much

There’s always the sign in button which you would have users tap if there’s something you need them to sign in for.
The login button could be a button with sign in action.
The continue w/o login could be a button with link to screen or increment action.

Agreed, it would be easy to create a screen with a Sign In or a Continue without Sign In button.
As for the slider, all you need is an array column with 4 image urls (one in each column), or a relation to a sheet with a Lookup that returns 4 rows with 4 image urls. Both the array option and the lookup option would work with an image component to show multiple images as a slider. Not sure, but may also be able to play around with Split Text, to create an array, but not completely sure.
