The SaaS Founder's Guide to No-Code

[@vladhu]

Great video Rob! I appreciate No-Code for it's minimum entry barrier. If you can build a funnel using ClickFunnels, you can probably build a simple web app using No-Code solutions. No-Code solutions nowadays are similar to WordPress a long time ago, when people were coding html pages by hand. They disrupt the industry in a positive way, giving entrepreneurs the tools to test their ideas, and free up developer time to invent new things.

Thank you Rob, I just passed 7:55 on the video. Where can I go to find a higher resolution image of those no-code companies?

For the past three years, I've explored various no-code and low-code platforms, and finally settled on an open-source, self-hosted, low-code toolset. It beats SaaS no-code platforms by a mile. Usually, your capabilities are limited to what your software tool can do, especially with SaaS. But when you choose developer tools, you expect to go beyond these limits. SaaS no-code platforms are just another type of software, and you can hit a wall if it doesn't support a particular function. This isn't a viable long-term solution. That's why I chose open-source, extendable, low-code tools. They handle most of the heavy lifting, but give me more freedom. If I need something outside the box, I'm not stuck. I can always add a bit of JavaScript code or an npm package for that custom functionality.

Absolutely 100% yes.

Even having some codes for basic elements could save a huge amount of time and struggling.
