Hi, I´m making an app with all my recipes (500!)

There is a maximum of screens in Thunkable X?

I remember Thunkable Classic was 10 and I think I read one time that Thunkable X have a maximum of MB for app but not of screens, is that true?

Thanks!

Hey @Roberto_Perez_Munoz 👋

If you have 500 recipes you can display all of them with just one screen. This concept is explained in greater detail here:

> Originally published Oct 2019 Revised & Updated Feb 2022 One pitfall that often catches out new Thunkers is creating more screens in their projects than they need to. Two classic examples of this are the Dictionary app and the Quiz app. As a new user, it’s easy to think that if you need 1 screen for 1 question then you need 50 screens for 50 questions. The knock on effect of this approach is that any future updates become more time consuming. This is especially true of UI changes since you wil…

Whenever I see someone write that they are planning to create hundreds of screens or have thousands of blocks in a screen, I always think to myself that there’s a way to make that code more efficient. Something like a cookbook has so many repeated components from screen to screen (e.g. recipe title, button to go to next recipe, etc., etc.,) that you should be able to just use variables in place of those and change them whenever the recipe # changes. Putting all your data in a database, either locally or in Airtable is going to make this all so much easier and faster.

Please create a new topic for the questions you have. It’s great that you included screenshots but we have no idea what you are trying to do or what is/is not working… what happens when you preview this and what did you expect to happen? You need to explain that in more detail.
