Have you tried Softr for no-code?

I found out about Softr (https://www.softr.io/) yesterday while reading through the latest issue of Trends.vc by @dru_riley. Make sure you subscribe if you haven't yet - it's fantastic!

I am moving the public website for my app (www.feemetriks.com) from Squarespace and was planning on moving to Webflow (which I recently transitioned www.fiduciaryu.com to from Squarespace as well). I love Webflow and have spent the past couple of months building my site (I'm not a developer). It's been a blast and I've learned a ton. But I really just need something simple for FeeMetri(k)s (the app is built with Bubble but I've been using Squarespace for the public site). Anyway, I was a little nervous about Softr being new and small (currently 4 people). But I signed up for an account today to play around with it and I have to say it is pretty awesome. Super simple, really clean UI, and crazy fast to build with - I've almost replicated my existing site (albeit a simple one) in about an hour.

Anyway, if you've got simple sites that you want to launch fast, you should check them out. Reminds me of a simpler version of Webflow to use. It looks like they have web apps on their roadmap too.

          That demo of the job postings is pretty sweet. What's the ETA on the web-apps functionality? What types of things will you be able to build?

          1. 1

            You can check out https://www.softr.io/templates, we have now quite many - you can build online courses directory, job board, directories of any kind, food discovery platform, upvoting sites and more coming soon!
