**What high-level problem are you trying to solve?** As mentioned by @cooperka recently, it would be great if ODK Build would support entities. This would open up this amazing new feature to low code form creators who love ODK Build. **Any ideas on how ODK could help you solve it?** From a technical side, a discussion of what bits of the Build code base need to change. From a user experience side, would this feature be useful? **Upload any helpful links, sketches, and videos.** ODK XForms entity spec: [https://getodk.github.io/xforms-spec/entities.html](https://getodk.github.io/xforms-spec/entities.html) ODK data collector workflows: [https://docs.getodk.org/data-collector-workflows/](https://docs.getodk.org/data-collector-workflows/) ODK Build issue: [https://github.com/getodk/build/issues/323](https://github.com/getodk/build/issues/323) ---

Similar, alternative possibility: the NEMO form builder could also support entities. We should eventually investigate whether one or the other is significantly easier to accomplish (both in terms of technical needs and funding).
