101 Crash Course

If you want to learn about the platform and create your first app, this short dive course is for you

And so here we go, this course we break into three parts: Design, CMS Collections and Actions

Part 1 - We're making a design.

To begin, we will prepare 4 simple screens with a good nested structure.

‍
1. Welcome screen
2. Companies screen with CMS Collections
3. Company details screen
4. About app screen

‍

Figma project

‍

Note that the design uses a flexible structure using the Auto Layout and Constraints properties

‍

Part 2 - Import project from Figma to Sizze

In this part we will transfer the finished design from Figma to the Sizze project

‍

Go to the project in Figma and copy into the project link

You can take this project as an example

‍

Go into Sizze and paste the link into the import modal window

‍

Selecting screens from the Figma project for import

‍

Assign the first screen and delete the blank one

‍

Part 3 - Create custom presets

In this part we will turn static elements into functional elements

‍

Assign to all Navigation Bars the property

‍

By analogy, we do the same with all the other elements. And also configure the link button.

Part 4 - Create CMS Collection

In this part we will start working with the CMS collection and connect our design to the data

‍

‍

Next, we copy our detail page and paste it into the created CMS collection detail page

‍

Changing the background color to #f6f6f0

‍

And delete the previous page

‍

Open a CMS collection and make additional columns for future content

‍

In the end, the table should consist of fields like this

‍

Part 4 - Create CMS List

In this part, we create a collection preset and connect it to the data

‍

Putting aside our finished design

‍

Go to the presets menu and select CMS List

‍

Connecting our collection to CMS List

‍

We take a ready-made card design and insert it into the CMS item. When you insert something in the CMS item all other cells will duplicate the content until you connect it to the data from the table.

To copy a card you can use the hotkeys CMD + C, CMD + V

‍

Let's set the padding at the CMS item

‍

Select the main text in the card and choose in the right menu from which column to take data for this text.

‍

By analogy it is necessary to do with other data

‍

Part 5 - Connect Detail Page

In this part we will connect all the data to the detail page and learn how to switch between pages

‍

‍

Do the same with the other data that need to be taken from the table

‍

Make sure that your button should be configured as a Preset Contact Button. This is necessary in order to connect a link.

‍

The end result should be as shown on the screen below

Part 6 - Create Actions
