Tables and pages and docs - oh my! We'll be duplicating them all!
AL
Alice Ly
If you got something good going on whether that be a table, a page, or a full doc, why not create more of it? In this doc, we’ll be going over how to do just that along with a refresher of tables and views.
Remember to complete Chapter 1: Copy doc (which is actually more of a prologue tbh) for the full experience of this doc. You’ll also be reminded at the top of every page with an interactive exercise.
Written instructions and screenshots are also included for those who prefer to stay in this published doc.
