Adding the CRUD Template to Your Naologic Project: A Quick Guide

Want to accelerate your development process? The CRUD template offers a pre-built structure for creating applications with essential CRUD functionalities. Learn how to easily add this template to your Naologic project and start building dynamic features. This guide will walk you through the simple steps involved.

Steps to add the CRUD App:

1. Navigate to the Builder Overview:
   This is the main dashboard where you can see all of your projects.

2. Select the Project:
   Click on the project you want the CRUD App added to. Once selected, you'll be taken to the project canvas.

3. Locate the "Add" button:
   On the left side of the canvas, you'll find a "+" button. Click this to open a modal window.

4. Drag and Drop the CRUD App:
   Within the modal window, you'll see a navigation menu on the left side. The CRUD App can be found under Modules > Apps. Once located, drag and drop it to the canvas.

5. Set Up the App:
   Once you've dropped the "CRUD App" onto the canvas, a modal window will appear on the right side. This is where you will set up the app:

   • App name: Name your new app.
   • Data structure name: In Naologic, data structures form the data schema of each document, offering configuration for every data point such as name, email, and phone number. This is usually something relevant to the app, like “Contact” for a “Contact Management” app.
   • Create-form name: This is the name of the Create Element in your app (e.g., “Create contact” or “Create new contact”).
   • Edit-form name: This is the name of the Edit Element in your app (e.g., “Edit contact”).
   • Data collection name: In Naologic, data collections represent groups of your data documents, playing a vital role in efficient data management. This is usually something directly tied to the Data Structure.
   • Data document name singular: This is the name in singular that users will see in the app table once published (e.g., “Request” for an “Access Request” app).
   • Data document name plural: This is the name in plural that users will see in the app table once published (e.g., “Requests” for an “Access Request” app).

Alternatively, you can use the search function:

• Search for "CRUD App":
  Within the modal window, there is also a search function. Type "CRUD App" into the search bar. The "CRUD App" template should appear in the search results.

By following these steps, you've successfully added the CRUD template to your Naologic project. This template provides a pre-built structure with essential CRUD functionalities, saving you time and effort. Now, you can customize the template to fit your specific needs and build dynamic applications within your project.
