[@jonnyp9659]

THANK YOU!

[@supremaunus7100]

Yes!

[@newcooldiscoveries5711]

Really informative, helpful with my particular needs and enjoyable to learn. Thanks!

[@HansVandeveire]

Nice introduction of a huge bunch of possible features... thx!

[@monicachoo1911]

The App Maker editor and user apps will be shut down on January 19, 2021. Is there anything else apart from appsheet?

[@ThoLefl]

How do you do the custom slide stuff on the right? (For example "grade school" at 14:24)

[@lavidboys]

Great video!! I wish they would more into detail about the app marker. I’ve reached the point of developing a big spreadsheet the works great but I need to take it to the next level. App maker is a great tool to move to.

[@EricKoleda]

You can learn more about App Maker here: developers.google.com/appmaker/

[@alisterflett8105]

Is the add-on you used to show the Lifecycle of the spreadsheet cycle available as a standard add on ? It was a great way of talking someone through the spreadsheet or process. Thanks

[@EricKoleda]

No, I haven't published it anywhere as I really didn't think it would be useful to many others. Maybe try sharing the video with them? :-)

[@lemehideyo857]

@@EricKoleda 36:56 why are you using apple mac book instead of chrome book 🙄

[@phidias51]

This looks like a great way to rapidly prototype an application. Is there a way to create custom "renderers" for different types of columns. For example, you might have a String that contains a protein identifier of some sort, and you want to display a 3D rendering of the protein. Or you might have a String containing a SMILES string representing a drug-like compound that you're screening, and you want to display the structure of the compound. Also, are the widgets web components?

[@EricKoleda]

Yes, I think that should be possible. The "columns" are just widgets bound to a row in the data model, and you can use the page fragments feature to create your own custom widgets: developers.google.com/appmaker/ui/viewfragments

[@annaspinks5890]

When will app maker be made available to non-profit users? This has lots of potential to be extremely useful to us.

RIP App Maker

[@dennisb9667]

Great demo, thank you for effort!

[@paulofernandez2022]

!! The App Maker editor and user apps will be shut down on January 19, 2021. New application creation is disabled. !!

[@jo99nathan]

Well that surely happened...

[@alejandrorodriguezdiaz4869]

Great Presentation! I would be great if you could share the spreadsheet+script that you used in the demo to track the Travel Expenses. I (and the community) would strongly appreciate that

[@andrescastillo2863]

Thank you for this video.

How do I have access to this code? I am really interested in that.

[@EricKoleda]

We haven't published the code for any of these demos, mostly because they are a big mess. If we get a lot of interest in it we can reconsider.

[@SirajudeenThinki4]

Awesome concept

[@JigneshThummar]

How about large data which sheet cant handle?

[@vernanderson7739]

Huh? Using a Mac and not a Chromebook for the demo???

[@JinNani224]

Do you have to pay for this?

[@chris-programming]

Does Google App maker end soon?!

[@ErnestAmeyaw]

This was very informational Thank you :)

[@UniversalMinds]

Is it possible to use Google Maps in the context of G Suite without paying extra for the Google Maps API key?

[@EricKoleda]

No, unfortunately the Google Maps integration shown requires the same Google Maps API key as any other type of integration.

[@ikebipe]

The problem is that the widget-form needs to be rebuild upon changes to the underlaying table.

[@EricKoleda]

Yes, updating the App Maker form widgets with new fields isn't quite as seamless as we'd like, and the team is aware of the issue.

[@kakairecharles3474]

What a remedy!

[@simple11q]

Man, google stop shutting down everything you create, let it breathe and evolve !

[@DaSnipy]

Nice ! Thanks :) +1

[@Naposensei]

We also love the new features but Why speak so fast :( please slow down please

[@samparsons8096]

YT engineers that spent years developing incredible speed control feature: "yeah, we didn't think anybody was going to use this anyways"

[@EricKoleda]

Sorry about that! We were worried we wouldn't be able to get through all of our content within the 50 minute session. Also, we're both from New York and tend to talk fast :-P

[@vidyadharUppaluru]

no comments? wow!

[@EricKoleda]

I think they were being moderated, but they are all live now!

[@RuiBarreiras]

and suddenly... no more appmaker... let´s move to appsheet... at least until 2022...

[@hammockmonk]

Using Google products is great until they hit you with a sundowner announcement. They killed Chrome integration of Google Voice a couple years ago and this past January they discontinued App Maker. What’s next?

[@JoeIrizarry88]

A year later Google announces that App Maker is being retired...............

[@MichaelWirdefalk]

Clearly Google sheets aren't as great as they say as they always seem to MS Excel as well.
