Any no code tools to replace just front end code?
by
Menan
Hey, is there any tool to replace entire front ends (like react) that can connect my backend api
Hey @Bsme! You could use webflow.com and connect via API using Zapier. This way you have the best design flexibility with the front end?
You could also create a front end with bubble.io and connect via API using their API connector plugin (really straightforward). This would likely help make the front end more dynamic, but has less design flexibility.
I’m thinking of switching over to no code front end do you know anyone else that has done something similar . Our React UI was built fully on a UI component library so I was thinking that’s pretty much should be able to be built with no code.
I use Webflow for our landing page but I’m working if it lets you do conditional rendering of components? Like based on the settings users set it will show certain ui or not?
Maybe bubble will be the best. Btw signing up for you community 😁
awesome man! glad to have you 👋 IndieHackers + Nucode is ❤️
I think you'd be best off with Bubble. If you have any questions while building just let me know! https://www.nucode.co is fully built on bubble.io.
Out of curiosity, why do you feel the need to move away from your existing React front-end?
Mostly cost and speed. My differentiation isn’t with UI itself. I mostly built the entire front end with UI components. It would much easier to maintain, and build for with no code. If I needed to add a functionality I could add it much faster.
I am at the point where I need to hire another developer. That whole proccess is just hard and expensive. If I was to do no code I could train a somewhat technical person for a fraction of the cost. Or even not hire at all for the time being.
