Once an app is in the field, the question isn’t “how do I build a new app?” It’s “how do I add to the one that works?” This short eLearning walkthrough covers how to extend an existing CommCare application with new forms, modules, and workflow tweaks while keeping ongoing field use uninterrupted.
Planning the change
Most rework that bites later comes from a poorly scoped change. The walkthrough opens with a short framework for deciding whether a new requirement is a form change, a module change, or a workflow change, and what each costs to ship.
Building in the App Builder
A live tour of the changes inside the App Builder: adding a form, adding a case property, and updating the navigation so mobile workers find the new piece without retraining.
Shipping safely
How to publish the change, what to test in CloudCare before mobile workers update, and how to roll back if the field flags a regression.
