Zoho Developer Hangout (ZDH) - Episode 12 | Building a Client Portal in Zoho Creator

Hello everyone,

Developers have been building a range of applications spanning various industries, processes, and businesses with Zoho Creator. Our developer community member and seasoned developer Tasha observed a pattern that there's not much emphasis on developers creating apps for their own or their company's specific needs. Imagine a developer envisioning and building a portal that simplifies the ticket-logging process for clients, doing away with the hassle of lengthy emails, and having a consolidated view of their ongoing and completed tasks. And not just that, clients can seamlessly access their invoices and quotes directly from CRM, all thanks to this integrated portal.

In this episode, Tasha delves into the details of how this one-stop shop was conceived and developed to streamline client communication, enhance transparency, and create a seamless experience for businesses and their clients.

This project serves as a testament to the flexibility and potential of Zoho Creator, showcasing its capabilities beyond simple form creation. Tasha's initiative is an inspiration for fellow developers, urging them to explore the full potential of Zoho Creator and push its boundaries.

Watch the video below to explore the intricacies of the client portal along with insights into the development process, challenges faced, and the potential for expanding the platform to incorporate additional features.

About the Speaker

RHi Digital

I'm a developer with a solid 6 years in the game. Started off in Frontend Development and gradually shifted into more Backend and Software territories – you know, the stealthy, ninja side of coding. When I'm not deciphering lines of code, I'm knee-deep in the world of Baldur's Gate 3, slaying dragons and whatnot. It's my go-to escape from reality. Reading is another pastime of mine, and I enjoy trying out different cultural foods when I'm feeling adventurous. In terms of career moves, I've been diving deeper into the world of Python lately. Figured it's a solid investment for the future of AI and might give my career a boost.

If you have a compelling use case that you're proud of implementing and eager to share with the developer community, send us an email at developer(hyphen)community(at)zohocorp(dot)com, so we can set you up for a session.

ZDH is a Zoho Developer Community learning initiative that aims to facilitate a platform for developers to share their expertise and learn from each other. The monthly virtual meetings are designed to help developers solve real-time business problems by leveraging Deluge and other programming languages. Notably, these sessions are presented by our esteemed Zoho Community members themselves, along with our team of product experts. This format offers community members the chance to engage in interactive discussions, share their own experiences, and gain valuable insights into innovative problem-solving strategies employed by their peers.
