I personally can't fully make the switch from Notion until this feature is available! I would give a hand would i know Rust... Will keep an eye on its progress, thanks for your awesome work!

Same. My workflows depend heavily on databases being able to dynamically reference each other.

I might be willing to give a hand with this feature and likely others in the future, but i will first need self-learn Rust and Flutter. Are there other techs i would need to familiarize myself with to implement this specific feature?

Thanks @rollingtatoo for your interest in contributing to AppFlowy!
This feature might be too challenging for you at the moment. I'd recommend that you start with beginner friendly issues.

How appflowy deal with databases. I cannot create correlation between two databases. Which is a basically the number 1 reason Notion is so powerful.

Hello, I am new to AppFlowy and just discovering it. Is it possible to create a relationship from a column on my table to a column in another table?

Hello,
This feature was initially planned for the v2.4, then 2.6, 3.1, 3.6 and finally unplanned.
Have you any idea if the feature will be added, and when it would be ?
Thanks

Thanks @ciseur68 for following us!
We plan to support relation to by the end of Q1 2024 🥹
I totally get it that relation to is an essential feature for power users.
It was initially assigned to @appflowy
then he has been busy building AppFlowy Cloud. The rest of the team is working on AppFlowy Mobile at the moment.

@annieappflowy just curious if Q1 2024 is still the plan. Don't see it showing up on the roadmap in the next 2 versions.

It's actually in our immediate plans, and is currently under development, if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to let us know.

No specific requests. Would like to connect two databases so team 1 and team 2 can have their own db and it all rolls up to one orher db, with a different schema. If you have UX related challenges remaining, I'm happy to help.
