Who here is building with no-code ?

Together with @edgarascom, we're building Content Writing Jobs, a job board connecting writers with companies seeking content producers. We use Webflow + Airtable + Zapier + ConvertKit. Even though these tools are powerful we found it quite challenging to build exactly what we want.

Yep! Working on 2 new cool projects I'll be launching soon enough :D

I built a no-code backend for my project using Commun.dev. But I built the frontend in a traditional way using Next.js and Material UI.

Yup, been working on something on both Bubble and Adalo. Went fully live with Adalo on iOS, and with Bubble I went live months ago but pulled back to make a pivot. Bubble is pretty much limitless at this point from a platform standpoint. Adalo is still getting caught up with features, etc. However it's got plenty of potential for building native app store apps.

i made https://vpnoid.com with no code skills a free vpn

Since Oct 2018, I shipped 8 projects so far using no-code tools like Bubble, Table2site, Carrd.co, Airtable. No-code empowers you to ship MVP type projects quickly under low cost. That's the beauty of it. Ping me if you need anything, happy to jump on a call and talk. You can find what I shipped here: 5harath.com and on my profile :)

I build websites with Webflow, but I have to say that building tools pushed me to learn code and I’m so glad I did. Building apps with code and I love it.

I built TheTXTHub specifically for a no-code competition. I had technically been in the no-code space before it (without knowing), but I specifically set out to build The TXT Hub in order to get more familiar with building something without code, using tools I had never used before. The TXT Hub uses Zapier, Typeform, Sheets, MailChimp, and a few other tools. Not a single line of code. I'm also the founder of Tee Tweets, which is technically a no-code/low code venture as well. Built Swyftlight on Webflow, which has a steep learning curve if you're not familiar with web development. If you are familiar with it though, you should be able to catch on pretty quickly. Plus, they have Webflow University, which has valuable tutorials on learning how to use Webflow. I'm very bullish on no-code, as is our rampant no-code community on Twitter. I'd say Bubble is sort of at the top of the list in terms of functionality and producing a full-scale web app. With that functionality though, comes complexity. I'm not a Bubble expert yet myself, but it's easy to recognize the power and value it has. Webflow is very designer-focused, so it's great for building websites and landing pages. You could technically build a web app on it, but you'll likely need some integration apps like Zapier, Parabola, Integromat, etc. to make it function like a web app. Adalo is another platform that is cooking up something real nice. Adalo is sort of a simpler Bubble, which also produces web/mobile apps. It's a lot simpler to create apps with Adalo, but you'll also be a bit more limited in terms of the UI, since you're building from pre-fab components. This isn't typically a deal-breaker though, since you can still give your app a general cohesive feeling in terms of UI/UX. One big plus to Adalo is that you can publish native apps directly to the App Store and Google Play. I've spoken with David, one of the cofounders, and their journey with how Adalo came to be has been pretty amazing. Excited to see future development from these guys. I'd also recommend keeping an eye out for Draftbit, which is in private beta. The best way to describe Draftbit is "The Webflow of native mobile apps." Its UX is very similar to Webflow, and code is automatically generated on the backend as you visually develop. The team behind Draftbit is also awesome. Of course the level of functionality with a platform depends on the level of complexity it offers, so it's a natural tradeoff. One (very valid) conversation that's starting to brew in the no-code space is the lack of open-source thinking behind platforms and taking into account vendor lock-in. I think the general sentiment is that we're hoping platforms in general play nice with each other and continue to integrate and expand in order to build real full-scale apps as you would with traditional development.

Built a whole website about NoCode, without code! Very meta.... NoCode 2.0

I work at nintex, one of the biggest no code workflow platforms on the market, we build some pretty mission critical workflows for customers on our engine, realistically we're designed for citizen developers to be able to make their own changes and iterations once the initial workflows have been built out, so that you tech gurus don't have support tickets coming in all day asking for changes :)

We built our site with no-code. Actually able to achieve some pretty impressive results: https://magicmorning.co/

That's interesting

Would really be interested in the tools that you guys use to create your products with no-code methodology. Am currently studying web development and im curious about what can be done without writing a single line of code

YES! I've started a little bit, and I've been experimenting a ton, but if you check out Makerpad.co they have an insane amount of resources for learning no-code tech builds. Plenty of people have used it to launch on producthunt. @bentossell this is your thing.

We are doing a Digital Coworking Space using No-Code

Super interesting discussion, I'm currently building a no-code product as well. I struggling on finding where to host it in web. Of course this also comes with all the adjustments that come along going code free. I'm glad this discussions it's been upvoted.

I've tried but I don't seem to be smart enough! Would love to hear other's experiences...

That's something I want to start soon, so I'm all ears for other people's experience

I'm just beginning my #nocode journey. I'd say that customization is one area where nocode tools lose a step when compared with coding. I'm more than willing to make that tradeoff for speed and happiness, however.

I'm not working on it but just a soft. on youtube is came to my attention called XPoda. maybe helps
