Lesson 2: Fill Your App with Data, Fast!

In lesson 2 we fill your tarot deck with real card data, fast.

In this beginner-friendly tutorial, I show you how to use AI to quickly populate your spreadsheet and then link it into your AppSheet tarot app. You’ll learn how to generate basic card data, fix up your unique IDs so your app doesn’t break, and tweak the look of your app so it’s starting to feel like a real digital tarot deck.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Using AI to generate a tarot card dataset

• Importing and cleaning up spreadsheet data

• Creating unique IDs with formulas and converting them to fixed values

• Regenerating your AppSheet schema

• Basic Theming and updating view settings

Want to skip a few steps and get straight to a working version of the app?

You may purchase access to the full Appsheet app template below including all project folder contents. This gives you the ability to clone the latest version of the project which copies the tarot deck spreadsheet, tarot deck image files, descriptions, and more associated project assets.

Maintain access to future updates.

You can clone the template again. Come back after I’ve added new features; once a new episode is published, the template will be updated.

Feel free to modify and add your own features and customisations along the way.

The goal is to enable you to gain the confidence to teach yourself new functions and use cases. My advice is to start with a goal - something you want to achieve with the app.
