What's your favourite no-code platforms & stack?

I am exploring the no-code platforms out there at time moment.

Would love to know your favourites and the common stacks e.g.

Webflow for frontend
Typeform for forms
Airtable for data
Zapier for glueing everything together

If any hackers are making interesting platforms, would love to know who and what they're making too!

    A couple thoughts. If you haven’t check out AppGyver (https://www.appgyver.com/). I think it’s the most powerful no code platform out there. Also, recently came across Xano (https://www.xano.com/) to build no-code backends. Can use AppGyver for front-end and Xano for backend. Here’s an awesome set of tutorials using both. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCttlpS195oiizn9z4jAyfvA/videos

    That said, I am currently building an app using Airtable as the backend and Stacker.app for the frontend. Stacker isn’t cheap, but the combination is crazy good. The opportunities that exist to build highly profitable niche products and launch them quickly using Airtable as a backend and Stacker as a frontend are incredible.

    I’m particularly interested in native mobile apps, and Adalo is the best platform out there for that specific need.

    If you’re focused on a web app (eg SaaS), then Bubble is much more sophisticated, whereas Webflow is more for landing pages (according to other no-coders I’ve spoken with).

      Ahh, how can I forget about Bubble!

      Thanks :)

      Thanks for that Felix, really helpful!

      Gumroad is becoming really popular for payments!

    Webflow
    Webflow - Forms (no need for Typeform)
    Webflow - CMS (for data)
    Integromat - Glue & Simple Datastore

      Cool!

      Why don't more people use the Webflow forms?

        I think it used to be super difficult (years ago) and when digging around online you still see that as the advice so folks just go with that.

        Here's how simple it is to use native Webflow forms nowadays...

    Frontend: Webflow, Adalo
    Forms: Jotform
    Data: Backendless, Google Drive
    Of course Zapier.

      Just got hip to backendless. Curious what it'd cost to build a simple task management app if I designed the FrontEnd and outsourced the Backend logic (backendless) & wiring to webflow to a 3rd party. Not sure what's normal.

      Helpful Thanks!
      Still need to try Adalo, and I've never heard of Backendless!
