Whether you are brand new to app building or a veteran of creating apps this AMA is a great place to bring your questions and get the insight of an Orientation expert. 

On Thursday, September 26th 2019, we are hosting a live AMA (Ask Me Anything) featuring Lee. Lee will be here from 2-3 PM EST to tackle your questions about App Planning, whether it is planning a whole new application or making a plan to change the one you are using today as smoothly as possible. Are you curious to know how you can map out your process? Do you want to know more about how you can plan for the needs of all the different types of users who are going to be in your application? Have you heard about collecting requirements for an app before and wondering what that means? Maybe you just want to know a bit more about Lee and what exactly an Orientation Success Manager is? 

You can start right now by submitting your questions here on this Community thread between now and the event on the 26th of September. Then Lee and the orientation team will be right here in this community thread to tackle them all on Thursday at 2-3 PM EST along with any questions they get live.

        Are there any plans to officially support Continuous Integration for custom code pages via API_AddReplaceDBPage? An official, well documented and exampled CLI tool offered by QuickBase would be a huge advantage for properly planning and deploying more custom solutions that leverage QuickBase & the QuickBase API.

              What are the things people most often forget to take into account when planning an app? Also how do you plan an app so it can grow and evolve over time?

                What are the best tools you use to map not only the Table structure but the field requirements and process flow? Have you found a tool that can accomplish all in one for a single tool for mapping? 

                Also i would find it valuable if quickbase or QSPs were to publish some of the mappings for applications on the exchange to help learn best practices how to do this type of documentation. 

                Thanks Derek

                  Can you tell if there are any enhancements in the works for Summary Reports? I currently do a lot of reporting in QB and it's discouraging when there is no ability to calculate percentages of totals or calculate the percentage of growth between one period to another.

                    Hey Lee, big fan.

                    I know that in a previous life you had experience building out a suite of applications. Do you have any tips, tricks, or lessons learned for process mapping and big picture thinking when it comes to the development of an app suite?

                    I'm thinking about things like connections (relationships, automations, etc.) as well as ease of use for the end user (transitioning between apps).

                    Thanks!

                      What % of apps do you think are built with a traditional waterfall SDLC vs an agile one?

                        Lee,

                        Long time listener, first time caller.

                        What was the last great idea you had that is now realised in QB?

                        And are there any features that you are looking forward to seeing before the end of the year?

                        Thanks for making yourself available for questions!
