   The Separation Model - Part 20 - Using Mirror Tables
   --------------------------------------------------

   The separation model requires creative thinking when it
   comes to keeping the data file clean of any extraneous
   fields. Fortunately, one of the best aspects of the
   Relationship Graph is that it doesn't care where the
   file resides or where the data comes from as long as it
   can access the fields for relationships.

   Given the previous statement, we can certainly create
   extra UI tables in order to facilitate our fondest data
   dreams and wishes. Adding new tables to the UI file is
   par for the course when you consider the number of
   existing utility tables already being used by the
   KarateApp solution.

   In this video, I talk about my use of a Mirror table for
   the People table and how it's going to play a role in an
   upcoming video about automated notifications. Mirror
   tables are very useful in a variety of situations.
   Knowing how to use one is certainly a beneficial
   FileMaker skill.

   Time Saving Developer Tools
   --------------------------------------------------

   How could anyone ever expect to build a house without a
   hammer? How about throwing an air compressor and nail
   gun into the mix? Yeah, that's right, you can get a lot
   more done in a shorter amount of time when you have more
   powerful tools.

   Every occupation has their tools. Typically, created by
   people within that profession who needed a faster,
   better way of doing things. A FileMaker database can
   quickly become a management nightmare. Adding new fields
   and relationships for new features is a super common
   task.

   The problem is, how do you know you're not already
   duplicating effort that may already be present? In this
   video, I walk through some tools I use and others I've
   tried. While I may not use them all in daily development
   work, all of them become super helpful when you need
   what they provide!
