🧐 Ask Community: How would you extend Fibery's UI or build on top of Fibery if you had an easy way to do it?

We just created a timekeeping app that was tied into our projects and tasks. The extra wrinkle that made Fibery especially powerful was that this is a multi-firm network – and any given user might be associated with one or multiple member firms of the network. This ties time to a user, project, and task.
We actually used ChatGPT (business) with MCP connector to Fibery to understand our schema in Fibery, and we created our own “app guidelines” (in ChatGPT), and then used ChatGPT to generate a complete layout instructions. This then made a really good initial run with the Fibery App creator. This probably cost about $50-75 to make (not sure because I was actually working on several at a time).
We can then post a time to a billing entry (e.g., to a client) and/or to an expense entry (e.g., to a firm the user is working for). This then appears on our billing app.

Fields are dynamically searchable so you can start typing a project name and it starts ‘smart’ filtering, which solves the ‘can’t load all your data into one select’
“Start again” (standard timekeeping feature) allows users to quickly re-start.
We also added custom tabs that allows you to view time by project (e.g., all users on that project, person (yourself) or all people you are managing (groupable in various ways).

We also just built a multi-firm Billing & Trust management app using essentially the same technique as above.

From our projects database, we can generate customer invoices (which push to Xero), manage trust ledgers (Fibery), and generate vendor invoices such as per-project payments to specialists who worked on the project (which push to Ramp).

Account reconciliation is not fully built out in this app (but is already working in Fibery).

Because of complexity, this probably cost about $100-200 so far, but was worth it.

This pulled together a hodge-podge of different Fibery views that were very confusing to anybody but architects, and makes Fibery usable for ‘everyday’ users

(note much of this is test data at the moment but details were blocked out to avoid accidental disclosure)
