Hi,

I have a very basic question. I am building an App on recipes and my plan is to have more than 100 recipes which means more than 100 pages. The content on most of the pages will just be text and an embeded Youtube video. My question:

1. Will more than 100 pages make the app size really big? (I don't want it take a lot of space on the users mobile)

2. Will the pages be accessable only when the user is online?

   Apologies these may be basic questions but I need to be clear before I start working on something.

   Thanks

Hello!

1) The size of the application will not be greatly increased.
But it is better of course not to do it with a hundred screens. And make an application with multiple screens, and data (text) load on the screen from database (or from a local json file)
It would be much easier to work with an app (to make some changes and to modify it)
2) If you have a link to a YouTube video, then of course, this video can only be viewed with the Internet connection.
But in General, the application does not require Internet connection.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

I tried putting the recipes in data form but the text is formatted. eg. there are bullets in front of ingredients etc, and hence forced to use HTML component on each page.

Do you think I can still use Data Load with formatted text?

Thanks

Hello!

Sorry for delay. You can store all the recipes in the form of text with html markup. And when you get the right recipe, you may bring it to a page with all the formatting in the HTML component.

No Worries and thanks a lot Evgene.

I'll try doing that.

Cheers
