In the dashboard, you can make your app from scratch by clicking the “New Formaloo”.

There, you have options to choose from the pillar templates like a dashboard, a CRM, and portal.

If you choose to create a dashboard, Formaloo will automatically generate a default dashboard with a results page and charts. You can customize these pages later.

For the course app, you can create different menus for each course. Or create different pages for each course in one menu.

2- Add the course content to your lessons pages

Add your content. You can add text, links, and customize the size and colors.

3- Enable portal mode

To add login and sign-up functionality, enable "Portal Mode" on your app.

When you enable portal mode, you can create a user table to assign it to your forms later.

Assign this user table to your forms later, seamlessly connecting user input with your app's database.

You also can connect your portal to your users' bases from your dashboard.

4- Create your form(s)

Now, let's create forms and quizzes for your app.

Add a user field to these forms. This way, users can view their submitted data on their portal after login.

To make it seamless, assign the user field to the app users' table (which you are using on your portal) from the right menu.

5- Insert form(s) into your app

Take the forms you've created and insert them into your app. You can embed this form into your website, or send the public URL directly to the users.

Here, we created a quiz for each lesson in our example.

6- Add the results page(s)

Navigate to "Pages" and add a "Result Page" to your app. This is where users will see their submitted data and quiz results.

You can use different views for the results:

• Table view
• Kanban view

‍

7- Add the user field to the result page(s)

In each result table, add the user field to your filters.
