Some people seem to be able to do it - I couldn't.
Here are a few things I learned experimenting with Bubble:
1. The learning curve is not that bad, and the support forums are useful.
2. The sticker price is misleading, in that very quickly you'll likely realize you need additional, paid components.
3. The minute you need any out-of-the box functionality, you start running into trouble. And because each app ultimately tries to do something a bit differently, the bar for out-of-the box is very low.
Having experimented with it for a few months (2-3?) I made two decisions. One, this was not the way to go for us. Two, I was going to bite the bullet and learn front-end web development. I did a Udemy bootcamp followed by a MERN course and that allowed me to comfortably build anything I needed to build for an early version (not yet an MVP). This made our team think very hard about what exactly we're building and spec it out.
I've come to believe the long way is the short way. Even if you end up hiring someone else to build your app, you want to be able to understand what they're doing and read their code.
