Summary

In this chapter, we started on our case management application. We first learned about how to set up and use the login template. After that, we set up our data model. We covered some new properties and their options, including email address, auto increment, and phone number. We also set up some relationships between the models so we can use data from other models later in our application, such as to set notes on a case or a user on our note changes. Once our data model was set up, we created a Back Office that allowed us to make quick changes to records in our data model, or create entirely new records. The Back Office is specifically designed for admins to enable them to make these changes.

In the next chapter, we’ll finish the application by creating the pages and diving deeper into the actions for the first time.
