What is No-Code?
On October 25th, the co-founders of Bubble, Joshua Haas and Emmanuel Straschnov, led BubbleCon 2023, showcasing the impressive trajectory of Bubble and its future goals.
The event attracted 300 attendees in person and 10,000 virtual participants from 163 countries, reflecting the growing no-code movement.
Trends Shaping the Future of No-Code
Scale: One major concern with no-code tools was their scalability, but Bubble has shattered these doubts. Initially seen as ideal for simple projects or MVPs, Bubble now supports complex applications with users like Synthflow AI raising $1.8 million and growing their user base to over 7,000.
The platform's ability to scale up is reinforced with recent enterprise solutions and SOC 2 Type II compliance, solidifying Bubble's position in enterprise-grade app development.
Artificial Intelligence: AI is transforming software development, and Bubble is integrating AI features to make building apps faster and more intuitive.
Generative page layouts, AI-powered workflows, and a growing number of AI plugins are making it easier for anyone to create applications, regardless of technical expertise. The combination of no-code and AI is expected to revolutionize the development process.
Democratization of Development: Bubble has been at the forefront of making software development accessible to everyone.
No longer limited to large corporations, small businesses and individuals can now create and launch apps on their own.
The platform has witnessed a tenfold increase in users since its early days and is now a tool for entrepreneurs globally, regardless of their technical skills. Non-profits, like Mon Project de Naissance, have also leveraged Bubble to launch impactful solutions for their communities.
New Features at Bubble
Native Mobile Apps: One of the most anticipated features, native mobile app support, allows users to extend their web apps to mobile devices seamlessly.
With this addition, Bubble users can now build fully-functional mobile applications without any code.
AI-Powered Design: In 2023, Bubble unveiled an AI tool that can automatically generate page layouts at the click of a button, significantly speeding up the design process for users.
Bulk Data Operations: New "bulk operations" features will allow users to handle massive data processing tasks with the same reliability as traditional code, making Bubble a powerhouse for data-driven applications.
Custom Events with Data: The ability to return data from custom events simplifies the development process and enables users to keep their apps organized as they grow.
