Understanding Rowy’s Code Functionality Through an Analogy
Think of Rowy as a magical library that organizes all your books (data) in a way that not only makes them easy to find but also allows you to lend them to friends (collaborators) and even add notes or summaries (cloud functions) that can be seen by others. Imagine every time a new book arrives (a data change), a librarian instantly updates the shelves (automates the process), organizes them by genre (data fields), and allows you to search through them using a magical index (user-friendly interface).
