[Typo3] Backend Programming - Forms for editing custom tables

[Matthias Taugwalder]

Hi all
 
I'm new to Typo3 programming and currently reading on and learning how to
program a custom extension for the Typo3 backend.
The idea is creating a custom module for a job database where users can
add,edit and delete jobs.
 
Now my question since I'm currently estimating the possiblities of the Typo3
framework: Is it possible to use typo3 functions in the Typo3 api to make
custom forms for editing the data items or has that all to be done by
hand-coding the corresponding PHP functions in the script.
 
My required main uses would be:

1.	Create a list of the data items which are currently in the database
2.	Display a form for adding and editing a data item.

 
Any hints or best-practice tips? 
 
 
Best regards,
 
Matthias Taugwalder
