What is a data block

Formaloo uses data blocks like Lego bricks to build forms, reports, and more. Combine these blocks to create the perfect app for your needs.

Updated over 3 months ago

Every formaloo you create in your dashboard will be composed of many "blocks," in the same way a LEGO castle is composed of many LEGO bricks.

Everything in Formaloo is a "block"

When you create your first formaloo in your dashboard and add fields to it, you've started with a database block.

As you've seen in the previous tutorials, your database automatically shows the fields in a form view.

Imagine every field you add to a formaloo — whether it's text, dropdown, or an image — as a single building block. Every formaloo is a stack of blocks combined however you want.

📝 Additional insights:

You can build a lot more views than just forms!

Read on to see how you can create an app with your data blocks.
