Getting Started: https://mdb.link/AtlasForms Manual: https://mdb.link/AtlasFormsManual
Atlas forms is a Forms based, End user interface to allow users to Create, Find, Update, Delete and Link Records. It is similar to a Fourth Generation Language (4GL) in that it abstracts away all database development where required and makes a Zero Coding solution to building an internal GUI to interact with Data.
It differs from a 4GL in having no proprietery coding language - it is instead a skeleton application in modern Javascript running with serverless function on MongoDBs Atlas Developer Data Platform. It is intended to be modified to fit requirements and has been designed to me modular and easily modified.
