Help, Is Fabrik suitable for me?

[mariluzrm]

Hi. I'm new with Joomla and php. I'm looking for a component to make forms. Is it possible to develop lists and forms in Fabrik without knowing PHP? Lists and forms must include records of several related tables. I'm trying but for example, I can not create lists with fields from two different tables. On the other hand, the default design is not pretty, how do I modify the look? for example, how can I include a scroll in the list?
Thank you

Everything you want is possible with Fabrik, but you must read the wiki, try, learn php, mysql and js.

You can add a list join

For modifying the default list and form templates coming with Fabrik you can add custom CSS or create custom templates.
In this case you need CSS, HTML, php knowledge

Thank you. I've read joomla component builder and breezingforms are similar to Fabrik for making forms. Do someone know then? Is Fabrik better?
Thank you

Fabrik is an application builder to create database applications.

When you say "Lists and forms must include records of several related tables." it sounds you need a bit more then just "making forms".
