Digital asset management with FileMaker
A showcase of an app we developed for a client. It helps users—primarily graphic designers—manage a catalog of digital assets (mainly PDF and TIFF files) stored on an on-premise server. The app provides a gallery view of the entire catalog within FileMaker and offers various ways to manipulate these assets.
We heavily utilise MBS and WebViewers in this app, so if you're interested in a practical use case for these technologies—drop by and listen. And watch. And maybe even learn (not guaranteed).
What this session will cover:
- How we tackled importing data from an old solution previously used by the client
- How we implemented a "folder" view (tree structure)
- How we manipulate physical copies of files through FileMaker (short answer: MBS for the win)
- How we display all files in a gallery format
- Requested features we couldn't implement due to platform limitations (or our brain limitations)
- Open discussion: What could we have done better?
- Unfunny jokes
