Workshops Guide and Challenges
This guide was created to onboard new Data2 team members, with the goal of presenting a learning path within the Builder.
Workspace & Design (2022-11-16)
The workshop covered using Data² as an expression tool for creating software graphic interfaces. It highlighted the importance of mastering Data² to express ideas efficiently. Several keyboard shortcuts were presented to make it easier to move and position blocks on the infinite canvas. The configuration options in the Inspector and searching for parameters within blocks were also explored.
ƒ(), UIStates & Dynamic Content (2022-11-18)
This workshop covered the concept of UI states and how they're used in Data². UI states represent characteristics that describe the state of an element at a given moment in time. They enable the creation of interactive, dynamic applications where different aspects of the interface can be controlled.
Tables & DataSets (2022-11-22)
In this article, we'll cover using tables in Data² and how to create and manipulate persistent data. We'll explore the importance of standardized naming and how to relate tables through lookup fields. We'll also see how to filter and display data efficiently.
Working with Repeaters (2022-11-23)
The workshop covered using the repeater in Data² and how it can be used to create dynamic, interactive interfaces. Repeaters are a block property that lets you visually represent data that repeats on a screen. They're used when you have elements without a fixed count on screen that need to be created dynamically based on a data source.
Custom Components and Controls (2022-11-23)
Workshop Summary on Creating Custom Components
Routers, Applications and Versioning (2022-11-23)
This workshop covered several topics related to building applications using the Data² platform. Throughout the event, the importance of routers, applications, and versioning in building robust, scalable applications was highlighted.
Domain Assistant (2023-03-14)
Workshop Summary on Using the Domain Assistant
Tips and Shortcuts in the Builder (2023-05-10)
Let's explore some tips and shortcuts to improve your experience in Data2. We'll cover topics like organizing workspaces, keyboard shortcuts for copying and pasting, selecting blocks, and using the search tool. These tips and tricks can help you save time and boost your productivity while working in Data2. Let's get started!
DataSet 101 (2023-05-25)
Let's explore the basic concepts of Datasets and how to use them when building applications in Data2. A Dataset is a way to access and manipulate data in a table. Let's start by understanding what Datasets are and how they work.
Arrays (2023-06-22)
In this article, we'll explore some array operations available in Data². We'll see how to use the ArrayPush, ArrayFind, ArrayFilter, ArrayMap, ArrayChunk, ArrayConcat, ArrayFindIndex, ArrayRemoveItemAt, and ArraySlice functions to manipulate and filter data lists efficiently.
ChartBlock (2023-05-25)
In this article, we'll explore the features of ChartBlock, a Data² component that lets you visualize charts and data. With ChartBlock, you can create dynamic, interactive charts to make it easier to analyze large data sets. We'll learn how to use ChartBlock to create different types of charts and customize them to fit our needs.
Authentication Strategy 101 (2023-08-03)
In this article, we'll explore the concept of AuthenticationStrategy and how to use it in an application. We'll present an example of a simple application where users can sign up, log in, reset their passwords, and access a restricted area of the application. Throughout the article, we'll explain how to configure each step and how to use the authentication Policy to protect the application's routes. Let's get started!
IdentityProvider (2023-08-14)
In this article, we'll explore the concept of Identity Providers and how they work within the Data² platform. We'll understand what they are, how to use them, and what possibilities they offer for authenticating users in applications.
