Hi, new potential user here

Help
1

Can you recommend resources on what I should do with a dashboard?

I need tutorials to get the overall idea of using Directus, and also to learn how to implement below:

I need to work with a PostgreSQL database
JWT implementation
GDPR compliant
Enterprise standards

I also tried to join the Discord channel, but it seems down. I’m not sure if that group channel is active?

Hello, are you looking to do it in the Directus app or do you want to use any other app like Nextjs, Astro etc

You can build an application on Directus? How does that work?
My current plan was building a web application using Vue and have to set up a database

Hi @mouse7, welcome to the community!

Have you checked out the getting started guide in the docs?

We also have a lot of helpful video resources on Directus TV, I’d recommend you take a look at Directus Academy for quick intros into what Directus can do, as well as 100 Apps 100 Hours and Short Hops.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

I’ve installed Directus, but I only see a login screen, not registration. How do I register? I registered on this website, but I can’t use that email ID on my self-hosted

I’m new to Directus and recently started the “100 Apps in 100 Hours” video series. I’m impressed by Directus’s potential and excited about learning to set up a database, but I feel I need a better grasp of data modeling and the bigger picture of why databases are structured in certain ways. I’m also new to databases in general and PostgreSQL, which I want to use with Directus. While following the tutorials, I struggle to understand the overall purpose of the steps. Are there additional resources, videos, or a recommended sequence of topics I should explore alongside the “100 Apps in 100 Hours” series to better understand data modeling and databases?

I recently tried to create the database by using a JSON script and using the import function to set up the database, but I got an error message – Invalid payload
What does this mean?

Also, if you use a tutorial as a way to set up the database, can you change or rename the datasets? I noticed that when I start a new collection, I couldn’t change the name
