Setting Up the Repeating Group
Right, let's add a stripe to this repeating group. I'm going to do a process which involves a function that I don't see many people talking about in Bubble. The first thing I'm going to do is set the background style to flat and to white. Now all of the cells in my repeating group have got a background color of white.
Using the Modulo Function
Then I'm going to say when current cell's index modulo 2 is 0. It's basically saying if the current cell's index is divided by 2 and the remainder is 0, I'm going to change the background color. Let's make it a nice gray. We'll preview that.
