I’m developing a disc management app featuring CSV uploads. Please share your spreadsheet setups so we can agree on a unified structure.
Hey Isaac, I’ve been working with spreadsheets for my disc collection and I’m pretty intrigued by this app idea. I usually just throw everything into one CSV, making sure I jot down year, condition, maybe even some notes about the play vibe – it kinda bloats up over time though! I haven’t given much thought to pivot tables or formulas beyond basic filters- I work a bit old-school. How are you planning on managing updates in the app? Let me know if you’re considering any smart ways to auto-sync changes; I’d love to see where this goes. Also, how do you envision handling duplicates? Curious to know your thoughts!
Based on my experience managing a disc collection with spreadsheets, I recommend establishing a clear and consistent schema for your CSV uploads. It is important to define a set of key columns such as disc title, catalog number, condition, and acquisition details to avoid ambiguity. I found that incorporating standardized date formats and clear identifiers helps maintain data integrity even as the collection grows. While using spreadsheets, I also implemented basic error checking during data entry which minimized duplicates and improved overall management efficiency.
