Okay so even though you said "if you can visualize it, you can build it", we're starting on the data tab with field types??? I feel like you should begin here with some drawings or inspiration images of other sites which have features and layouts that this app is inspired by. If the first step is to start on the data tab, then why is it the 3rd tab down?

I expected that you'd begin with the most basic of visual elements and layout (like a home page that has text for "profile" and a rectangle for where a header image would go, and then begin adding functionality and style to those elements once they are arranged on the page). So, I'm already disoriented in this guide. It would be helpful to understand why, of all the places you could begin building this app, you started with the "user data type"?

Thank you for making this video, subscribed. Can you help me with this question: lets say I want to build on Bubble an app similar to Yelp like "rate your teacher" where theoretically I set a field for "knowledge of subject" and set a scale so a reviewer can select between 1 (low) to 10 (high), and another field for "homework" and another scale of 1 to 10. Can Bubble do this? Another question: can Bubble also set weights so I can weight more heavily on "homework" (60%) and "Knowledge of subject" (40%) so I can then set a score (for example: 86%, B+) for a teacher? Thank you very much!!!
