Overview

This free template lets you build a custom student portal on top of your existing data, so students and faculty can stay organized without relying on clunky email chains or scattered files.

It comes with a sample database that shows how to structure your data for a student portal use case, but you can connect to any Softr-supported data source — including Airtable, Google Sheets, Notion, monday.com, and more.
