Dev Diary Ep62 - Introducing Filter Tags

Hello again!

Yes, we’re back again with another dev diary video, and yes, we’ve got another new component to demo! This one is all about the new Filter Tags Component.

If you’ve not watched the Accordion Demo or the Filter Demo, I’d recommend you do that first before diving into today’s video.

The Tags, Accordion, and Filter Components will be available in a new beta later this week. We’ll also share the demo files from the videos alongside the beta release.

What a week this is turning out to be :sweat_smile:

Thank you!

See you soon,
Dan & Team Realmac.

It looks really nice but I think having comma separated tags - where multiple tags could be viewed at once - would be a lot more intuitive (and Mac like). Sorry to nit-pick :slight_smile:

Looks superb. As you showed it it seems to be “Give me everything that contains this tag OR this tag”
Can you also do “This tag AND this tag” So for example, “Opening Hours” and “Christmas”
So if the first Accordion had tags of “Opening Hours” and “Christmas” but the second just had “opening Hours”, selecting filters of “Christmas” and “Opening Hours” would just show the first Accordion.

You’re on a roll. We can only hope that the blog and other still promised features turn out this good.

WOW!!

Now this is going to be really useful, can’t wait to get my hands on all this new stuff.

Great work!

I was thinking the same thing. I was trying to figure how to use this feature to cobble together a blog! :+1:

Yeah, a built-in simple tag cloud for any element is going to be needed, having to cycle through hidden tags is not a good idea for ui.

The collections are not limited to “tags” - that’s just a very simple example use case. Collections can contain any number of controls. It’s really powerful stuff.

We plan to expand on the way the records in a collection can be managed and organised in the future.
