Editing fields

Most fields can have its value edited manually by the user by clicking on the corresponding cell. But the real power of fields comes from the ability to use operations to calculate them automatically.

Operations

There are operations from varying complexities. For example, a date field can be set to the current date using the now operation, while the selection field can be calculated by the content-categorizer operation, which uses AI to automatically tag the content of another field.
