Description
Custom fields are quite complicated, however they're very important to a lot of users, so we need to support them eventually.
Model:
- develop a model for custom field definitions
- develop a data model for custom field data on Entry, Sense, Example sentence
- develop a generic model for custom lists
Api:
- develop api for interacting with custom fields, list fields, create new, delete etc
- develop api for listing all/custom lists and for interacting with them, CRUD
Ui:
- UI in FW Lite for showing custom fields (not editing field definitions) and editing data
notes:
- FW Help suggests a limit of 100 custom fields, I suggest we enforce that
