Hello Glide Community,
I would like to create an app to track support tasks for my son, who has special needs. I am looking for guidance on how to set it up. The main features I need are:
• Who provides the support (the caregiver)
• Caregiver selects the time of support
• Record what was done during the support
• Whether my son was present
• Whether the support was carried out by the caregiver
• Whether my son helped or not
• Whether my son refused the task
I would love suggestions on how to structure this in Glide, including the tables, fields, and user roles. The goal is to make it simple for caregivers to log tasks, while keeping everything organized and trackable.
Thank you so much for your advice!
Hello Parchita, welcome to Glide 
I think you would need two tables:
-
Users. Users who access the app, with a set of attributes including their roles.
-
Tasks. Each row would be a task. Each column an attribute of the task: date created, task owner, description, whether your son was present, if he accepted the task, if he took part.
The layout could include a form to allow caretakers to submit a new task. And you could display a collection of the latest tasks, if necessary with filters.
Would you be subscribing to the explorer or maker plan for this?
first I want to try for free.
It is just for personal use, he does not have money, he has special needs. All the caretalkers are doing this for free, but they want to know who is doing what…
What does the explorer or maker plan cost?

You can build an App on the free plan, but you cannot publish it. So you would need an Explorer plan.

Do I understand it well, that I have to buy a plan to use the app (publish it?)
