Best place to build MVP for non-technical founder?

I am a non-technical founder and am looking for a way to build an MVP to validate my idea of DecisionDonkey (www.decisiondonkey.com). Right now all I have is a landing page.

Looking to build an MVP within a few weeks to have something to provide for feedback to Beta Sign-Ups.

What would you recommend?

    Hi Tyler interesting idea and I think would be compelling to create. Building with bubble and webflow would be a big learning curve and is complex.

    It seems as though your main purupose is to create an MVP. And is the reason why you want to create an MVP to validate your idea?

    If so, I would see if possible to break down Decision Donkey into smaller pieces. See what can be built with tools that require less of a learning curve but could still be functional and give you validation that you need so that you can then invest your time into Bubble.

    For example, have you experimented with Typeform yet? You can create a vast amount of conditional logic so that you can create different workflows that may help with the experience that you are trying to create.

    With Typeform you can then connect to another tool that could send automatically an email to the user a result the next day, etc.

    Let me know if that helps and if that does look like a path for you to explore I can help provide the best way to do that.

    Hi Tyler! I think bubble will be able to serve you well, considering the amount of customisation needed. Goodluck!

      Thanks for your feedback -- I've been leaning Bubble but also want to see what else is out there!

        Agreed with above .. seems like your app features would need pretty sophisticated workflows and actions, bubble is probably your best bet.. however, I'm sure you can get an MVP to work with Webflow etc.

    Bubble is my go to no-code tool to build web apps (+ Webflow for a nice marketing website)

    I would use:

    • glide app to control access, create decisions, build a JotForm URL with hidden fields for know every answer and the graphs
    • JotForm to capture de answer
    • zapier to send for the same google sheet

    Or

    • zapier to send emails with the JotForm URL from a Google sheets
    • google sheets or airtable as database
    • JotForm to collect the answer

    Or a mix of those. I just split in jobs to be done and try to connect with an existing tool. :)

    I am using primarily Weblow for frontend and CMS, Airtable for backend database and some forms, with Zapier tying all the workflows together for my initial launch.

    I will say the that Typeform (as mentioned already) would also work and then you can use Zapier to create the logic to come and go for a mvp.

    Bubble all the way.

    I like it. I can confirm that a few years ago we would have needed a tool like this on a complex, multi-user corporate decision - Depending on the UI, we would probably have paid for it.

    Can't believe your landing page is built on wix, it looks great.
    As for your MVP, have a look at appgver.com it should do the job.

    I also want to know bcz I want to add this feature in my website https://fintexec.coach

    Just curios, what would you expect from such nocode tool?

    Are you ok with bubble to host everything on their side? Or would you prefer a tool that allows you to program visually and just import a js snippet with this you can host your wepage on your own on your own hosting?
