So a marketplace booking system with payments would be that. Sports venue sign up and configure their fields (5v5 indoor, 11v11), onboard to Stripe Connect Express. Public booking page for the venue. Players booking and reserving. Sharing i

Haven't had one go yet. The business tooling is built to stay in bubble. SME/Cost. Many MVPs died. Some still MVP stage iterating.

Debugging the NoCode part in bubble is super super super easy. When logged into bubble, add ?debug_mode=true in URL. See the bottom toolbar. Step by step through any workflow action. (Event based paradigm) or inspect any element and check a

Not yet. The data can be accessed via API endpoints. So a script could fetch it and populate a new database. The tricky part would be user authentication. It's built in. So those would need to slowly migrate and need a strategy.

100% agree. Great case for standard CRUD apps and has a coded plugin framework where some nodejs can extend if needed

Depends on the application. If it is a business that needs Standard CRUD, relational dB backend, a front end. The web app is in a zone that is perfectly viable and can stay in bubble. Cosmetic Limitations can easily be overcome with custom

Ok I'll elaborate. I really really miss git, version control systems, pull requests, automated ci checks etc. Imagine a world without git and version control systems. Then apply that to NoCode. Who changed which line. When did it happe

At this point in time, there is more demand for bubble than supply of service providers. When turning down work and struggling to scale, our own website https://azkytech.com takes a hit. Also, I'm working with a coach and h

The wall is definitely there. And the wall keeps moving further and further away. Totally right about the right tool for the job. And yes NoCode is the right tool for many simple crud apps.

It seems like all the comments here are from non bubble users. We have worked on over 20 client projects in the past 1.5 years using bubble. Specialising exclusively in bubble now. A way to describe the platform would be WordPress for Web A

These are good for client facing work? Any tips for the database side? It is easy to paint something in a wireframe, but the database has to be structured in a certain way for the app to work as well.

Surprised nobody mentioned bubble.io yet. Perhaps it steps out of low code into zero code. But you do end up needing to a developer to get far in bubble.io Source of insight: building a few webapps for people in it.

Running an OS + application entirely from memory is an interesting approach indeed. I guess the fundamental big problem you are facing is SD card corruption. In our experience, we've found the SanDisk Extreme Pro cards to be most relia

I'd recommend using resinOS as the base. And then running your application inside a Raspbian container. That will give you a read-only resinOS (based on Yocto. meta-resin layer). If you rpi is connected to the internet, you can use res
