Introduction to Views

Views can be added to objects to allow you to customize what data you see on the view. This allows you to see your data in the manner that best suits your use case. For example, you can view a collection of files in an explorer view (similar to a file explorer) or tasks in a board view.

View Types

Views have an associated view type. Each view type has a related render type that defines the specific interface.
