Hi, I’m Levon, founder of Zeroqode. Our vision is to make building and launching complex web applications many times faster and less costly than it currently is. To achieve that we use the most advanced no-code web development platform called Bubble and build app templates which are basically ready-made fully functional apps with great responsive design. So anyone with an idea can simply choose a template which is the closest match, modify it without code and launch it within weeks or even days! So what we are trying to do for complex web apps is something similar to what Themeforest/Wordpress have done to simple websites. I know many of hackers here are developers and are very skeptical about “no-code” idea but please check out what we’ve built before posting something like “no-code will never be as powerful as coding”. Think about it as the next level of abstraction, something similar happened when we went from assembler to javascript or from MS-DOS to Windows. It’s still programming where you can define algorithms, conditions, workflows, actions, API connections and much more although all that is done without coding, but rather dragging and dropping and configuring. And it makes development/debugging/iterations much easier and faster. Would love to hear what you think. Thanks!
Phonegap is creating a native app based on the static html pages is fetches from your website, so if you need to update\change anything in the app logic and structure - you will need to publish a new version, just like a regular native app would work. Webview is actually a container that works with your back-end webserver all the time, so whenver the changes are made on the webserver - it is applied seamlessly to your application, without the need to redeploy.
By the way, the web-sites of users who contribute their Postman API collections will be visible on the API collection page and will get significant traction :)
I guess the user upvoting system that we implemented similar to Product Hunt or Hacker News would help to keep the quality of the collections high enough. By the way we have built this web-site without code based on a Product Hunt Clone template from here https://zeroqode.com :)
The difference is that we allow user contributions that's why our library is a bigger one. We do list those collections that are listed on Postman's official web-site, which are submitted by the API providers themselvves. So that makes our list more complete.
Also we have comments and replies on each API page for users to discuss and help each other in solving technical difficulties.
Hey all, would like to know what do you think about the no-code tools in general and the future of no-code development. Shoot your comment to fire up the discussion :)
Bubble platform is the most advanced no-code tool that exists so far. It allowed many entrepreneurs (including me) create apps fast and with low budget which otherwise would take many months and tens of thousands dollars to build. It's true, I'm a bit biased here, because it also became possible for me to start a no-code development business which never existed before. So we focus on building apps without code for people who don't have time or patience to learn the no-code tools or who don't have budgets to afford the traditional development. And for the sceptics that doubt about the complexity of apps that can be built without code you could check our portfolio at https://bubblewits.com (this web-site is too built on Bubble). But we have taken it 1 step further and created a no-code platform for all things no-code. The main part of the paltform are the no-code templates built for Bubble. Which makes building new products and startups even faster (just like creating a web-site with Wordpress themes is easier than doing it from scractch).
