ILLA

This tutorial outlines the process of creating an Admin Panel using ILLA Builder and Supabase in a few simple steps. ILLA is a low-code platform for developers that enables the rapid development and deployment of internal tools. It allows for creating pages by dragging and dropping UI components, connecting to any database or API, and writing JavaScript.

WHERE name = "{{input1.value}}"

;

_10
UPDATE user
_10
SET name = "{{input3.value}}"
_10
, email = "{{input4.value}}"
_10
WHERE id="{{input2.value}}"
_10
;

Insert user data


_10
INSERT INTO user VALUES("{{input5.value}}","{{input6.value}}","{{input7.value}}");

Delete a user by id


_10
DELETE FROM user WHERE id = "{{input2.value}}";
