Question about development vs production environments

I'm finally making great progress and haven't been frustrated enough to quit yet, so I think I'm going to be able to make this (along with fillout) to help support my makerspace.  I hope to eventually move from the free plan to Teams once I know I have all the major pieces in place.

But once I do, and we're using it, I'm concerned that my future clugey attempts to add functionality might break operations.  Is there any concept of development, QA and production versions of a workspace?

At the price points you mention, there is no built-in support for a development environment connected to a production environment. I manually create a duplicate base for my dev base and then manually copy the changes back to my production base.

I wrote some more of my thoughts on the topic here in Kuovonne's Guide to Airtable.

Hello Jeff,

Concerning interfaces, you can bring modification to pages and not publish them straight away.

For all other points (database structure, formulas, automations) there is no development version as far as I know. I would be very happy if anyone had another information.

Regards,

Pascal
