I was very impressed by how easy it was to save data. Bubble, to me at least, follows a Javascript pattern of taking the input’s value and matching that with a piece of data in the backend. Then you have to set up the inputs to Bubble’s backend which is pretty straightforward. To do that, I just dragged and dropped input fields just like they told me. What would normally take me at least a day of setting up a backend and frontend to save user’s data took me four minutes. I followed some of Bubble.io’s tutorials and built a fully functioning sign-up and login feature that had validations and saved user data to a database in about four minutes. From there you can select elements such as text, input fields, shapes, and many other things. When you create a Bubble.io account, you’re led to their main dashboard which is a blank screen with a toolbar on the left. The part where they say you can drag and drop elements is true. Ok, that’s all fine and dandy, but how well do they live up to that promise? After about a week of playing around with Bubble, I can tell you that there are definitely applications you can build with Bubble which would take way less time than actually coding it, but for more advanced projects, I’m still going to stick with traditional coding - at least for now. Many of you may be familiar with some of the more well-known CMS platforms such as WordPress, but one in particular that caught my eye was Bubble.io.īubble.io describes itself as a “drag and drop” editor which allows you to build websites without code. I decided to do a bit more digging into a few of them. I wasn’t too shocked to find that there are actually a lot of alternatives to building web apps other than the more traditional methods. Recently, I’ve been looking into the wider world of web development other than the traditional web building methods of HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
