Learn No-Code

Why Learn No-Code?

Once upon a time, if you wanted to create an app, you had to know how to code. With the introduction of no-code tools and platforms, this is no longer a requirement.

No-code tools help you to quickly – and without knowing how to program – create web and mobile apps. Some will even help you create apps that can be published through the Apple AppStore or Google Play store. Like Bubble, Thunkable, Adalo, Softr and Glide.

But no-code tools are not just for apps, they can also help you create websites – from simple good looking one page sites with Carrd to showstopping showcases with Webflow.

They can help you launch your next ecommerce empire using no-code apps like Shopify and Squarespace.

They can help you get your information organised like Notion and Coda. Or supercharge your work with automations like Zapier and Integromat.

But all because you don’t have to code to use these tools, it doesn’t mean that there is no skill involved! The more powerful these tools have become, the more their learning curves have also grown. It’s also a skill to even know what is possible with no-code and what the general principles and techniques are.

These courses and resources will introduce you to no-code and help you become a more confident no-code creator.
