The highly anticipated 1.6 release of Baserow introduces two exciting new field types: formula and multiple select. These additions have been heavily requested, and we are thrilled to finally share them with you.
Formula field
The formula field allows you to perform dynamic calculations based on the values of other fields in the same row. With 30 core functions available at launch, you can perform numerical, conditional, text, and date-based calculations. And don’t worry, formula fields can be filtered, sorted, and searched just like any other field type. For more information, check out the formula field documentation.
Multiple select field
We are also excited to announce the launch of our new community forum, where you can engage in discussions and provide feedback. Whether you want to chat about self-hosting, templates, or stay up to date with our latest announcements, we invite you to join our community. We welcome support questions, feature requests, and even sharing your own plugins or integrations.
Community
Baserow has a developer community on GitLab, but we also wanted to offer a place for non-developers. If you would like to chat about self hosting, templates or just want to stay up to date with our latest announcements, then we would like to invite you to our community at https://community.baserow.io/. Support questions or feature requests are also welcome! If have you created a plugin or integration, we would love it if you share it here.
