Oracle Visual Builder: Applications That Outlive Their First Release · Module 3 · Pages, flows and navigation

Lab briefing · Four pages that hang together

Lesson 32 of 176 · 3 min

Build a LIST, a DETAIL, an EDIT and a CONFIRMATION, then CHECK EVERY ROUTE INTO AND OUT OF EACH ONE, including THE BROWSER BACK BUTTON. Four pages is the smallest application that has real navigation, which is why this is the shape the lab uses rather than something more interesting. BUILD THEM IN ONE FLOW, AND DECIDE THAT DELIBERATELY RATHER THAN BY DEFAULT. These four are one task a user carries through, so one flow is right — and saying WHY out loud is the practice this module is teaching, because the next four pages may not be. PASS THE ID AS A PARAMETER FROM THE LIST TO THE DETAIL, NOT THE WHOLE ROW. Lesson 3's rule, and the lab is where you find out what it buys you — because the checks below are what break under the other choice. THEN CHECK EVERY ROUTE IN, AND THE COLD ONE
