The Evolution of the No Code Community

The No-Code community is increasingly growing with people entering into the creative and entrepreneurial space.

If you go on Twitter and search “#nocode” you will be hit with a flurry of threads of platforms and functionality. Platforms like Bubble, Glide, Flutterflow, Airtable, and so on.

I first got introduced to no code in 2017 to solve my own problem. During that time I built an appointment booking app in the health & beauty space.

I first learned about the possibilities of no-code from Tara Reed, who has a $5M ARR business called Apps Without Code. Great resource

She appeared as a guest on the Startups For The Rest of Us by Rob Walling founder of Drip and Tiny Seed. He’s a very reliable resource in the startup space and loves the evolution of no-code.

With low code/no code projects, you have the ability to get away with not having a tech co-founder. Which is one of the key benefits of no code.

During this episode, he and Tara discuss the pros and cons of building a no-code MVP. Definitely worth the listen.

I didn’t know how to code and taking classes wasn’t an option. That’s when I found Bubble to build out what became Zap Style, my first app.

Currently today, there’s forums, everyone on social media is talking about no-code, and Slack communities.

One thing I’ve learned is that no matter how good you get at building no-code apps, in some area you will need help.

Just like coding with languages like Java or Python, you generally specialize in a certain area. UI/UX, back-end, APIs, etc.

For languages like Java or Python, you can easily find help on platforms like Fiverr or Upwork.

But the no-code community hasn’t really caught that wave yet. I’m constantly working on ideas and need this type of help from a no-code pro.

Searching through forums, DMing people blindly, or stalking Slack communities isn’t efficient.

Which is why I’m setting out to solve my own problem again. Building a platform for no-code pros to find work and connect with no-code pros to solve their problems.

Think of it as Fiverr or Upwork for no-code professionals. Yes, I’m aware it’s been tried before but it hasn’t been great or else I wouldn’t still have this problem.
