They've moved from the static desktop publishing model they've always used to a responsive web design model. Let's shift to Claris's new perspective on layout mode, which is a departure from their traditional approach that has been with us since the mid-1980s. When we click the "+" button in the upper left of the window, a table card appears. We can also edit an existing field by selecting the "pencil" icon next to the new field button.Ĭreating and modifying fields is all fine and good, but what if we need a new table or want to change an existing one? Well, Claris has thought of that too. Basic number and text fields are still available, of course. They even give us some shortcuts for creating elements like phone numbers, pop-up menus, and checkbox sets. We can still create a new field in our default table by clicking the "+" button above our field list in the lower left-hand portion of the screen. Claris has made a point to keep this interface as efficient as they can without holding back too much of the power of FileMaker. The user interface is very similar to the current one, but it's streamlined and rendered within an embedded web browser. After clicking it and naming our new app, we're presented with a brand new interface for creating and editing FileMaker apps. After clicking on Create, we're directed to the following screen: At the very top of this Create panel, we see a header area with a button labeled Get Started, which will launch the Quick Start Experience. After doing that, we're greeted with the standard screen that hosts the My Apps, Favorites, Recent, and Create controls. To get to the new Quick Start Experience, we need to create a new app by going to the File menu and selecting the "Create New." option. The tool allows new users and citizen developers to learn how to use FileMaker quickly. The Quick Start Experience, which is available for users running the most recent version of the software on macOS, opens the door, just a little, to a fresh way of using a product we've been using for years. Claris FileMaker is taking baby steps into the next generation of its low-code development platform with its new Quick Start Experience. Building, testing, and deploying applications all happen in the cloud without us having to install anything on our computers, phones, or tablets. Most of today's best examples of productivity-enhancing platforms don't require installing desktop programs or uploading apps to local servers but instead just opening a browser window and pointing to an address. The future of low-code development is coming clearly into view, and it's going to be browser-based.
