Overview
It is useful when an operations team needs to work with data without writing queries for every change. The same records can be viewed as a table, board, or form depending on the task. Make sure that convenient editing does not allow users to bypass data rules that the original application relies on.

- Form, board, and gallery views
- Data access through an API
Business uses

- A data entry form for a database-managed system
Getting started
