App-CRM
First of all, love refine. This is so cool, but i am still very new to coding and i've been stuck for hours now.
I'm trying to continue working on this example
https://example.crm.refine.dev/
After a couple of hours i got myself a working Database from where i've managed to collect some data through GraphQL. But now i'm guessing i have to implement it so it fits the example app. But i have no idea what to do, and it seems so very overwhelming, i'm thinking i need to add tons of tables and columns that matches those in the example?
I've tried searching more info on the forums, but the only answer i keep seeing is that "It's easy" and yeah....i'm not seeing that 😂 even after reading through the documentation.
Would it not be possible to get the Database from the example, or how would i get this working, any tips?

I understand that you're feeling overwhelmed, but don't worry, you're on the right track! The CRM example app you're working on is indeed a comprehensive solution, and it's normal to feel a bit lost when you're new to coding.
The backend for the CRM app is not published, but the team uses Nest.js + Nest.js Query with very little customization on top. You can check the schema at <https://api.crm.refine.dev/graphql> (https://api.crm.refine.dev/graphql) to get an idea of how the backend is structured.
You can also check the Nest.js Query package for CRM API Backend at <https://doug-martin.github.io/nestjs-query/> (https://doug-martin.github.io/nestjs-query/) and the backend configuration details at <https://refine.dev/docs/data/packages/nestjs-query/#backend-configuration> (https://refine.dev/docs/data/packages/nestjs-query/#backend-configuration).
As for your database, you're correct that you'll need to create tables and columns that match those in the example. The structure of your database should mirror the data structure of the CRM app.
Remember, it's okay to take it slow and break down the problem into smaller, manageable tasks. Start by understanding the structure of the CRM app, then gradually build your database to match it.
Keep going, and don't hesitate to ask for help when you need it. You're doing great!
