Succesful apps in Bubble
Hi :)
I'm starting learning Bubble because I've some ideas that I would like to build... But It would be great to know some successful apps that are making money built with Bubble to analyze them and learn.
Do you know some examples ?
Thank you !

Hey David, I was looking into Bubble a year ago and was playing around with their platform a bit, I suppose you've already looked into their showcase section: https://bubble.io/showcase
Back when I was checking it out, the french freelance platform Comet (https://comet.co/) was one of their advertised examples, I think I watched an interview with one of their founders on why they chose Bubble for their MVP. I know another founder that used to build his MVP for a camping spot renting site here in Germany (https://mycabin.eu/). What I took away from their experiences is that while Bubble can be painful to use (unless you love tinkering and watching video tutorials trying to figure out how to make it work), in their case it was the only way to get something working of the ground given their limited resources (and it seemed that it worked out great in the end!).
In both cases they moved away from Bubble once they had traction and some paying customers, in the case of myCabin they hired a SWE who rebuilt the thing in Next.js. So I'd say while it's possible to build money-making apps in Bubble, it's more of a stepping stone so I'm not aware of any major production-level apps in Bubble (but the showcase definitely claims some so maybe dive in deeper into the ones mentioned there).
Cheers, Fabio
Thanks for this long and very good answer.
Thank you for your answer Fabio :) It's super helpful !
I see... there are many products that finally are developed coding after It's validation.
I guess that I'm looking for products built with Bubble but before get the full traction...
