I'm using zapier + my app https://duply.co to generate image automatically

Yess, we use Shogun for our Shopify store and it works great!

Hey Sharath, Built https://www.readsomethingfunny.com/ using entirely no code stack. Launched it on PH yesterday as well! 1. Front-end - Softr 2. Back-end - Airtable No-code is the future of building products. Any no-code tool for building bots? (Especially Twitter bots)

No code tool is nice to learn. but still did not launch any product yet.

One of my fav no-code tools is Webflow: amazing community and great learning content (makes you laugh out loud kind of great:
). Webflow is especially powerful with Flowbase (https://www.flowbase.co/). I built multiple websites in the past months. Just released the newest one for Wonderpath: https://www.wonder-path.com/ The best way to learn is to start building. And my tip is to interact with the community: check out forums, post questions on Twitter. I believe we're still in the early days of no-code and early users can really help move these tools forward: share ideas, challenges, and any workarounds you discover.

Can't say more good things about no-code. I worked in big tech for several years as a PM and we could have saved a lot of time/money by spinning up new apps using no-code before making decisions on whether to invest with an eng team. Great website here to see what tools are best for your use case: https://www.nocodesetup.com/ I am currently using Softr.io and Airtable for an app I hope to launch on Product Hunt soon.

👀 This discussion looks very interesting... Full development vs no-code for poc. The former - Full development - requires speciality in web dev and takes months or years. But, We get full control and create anything we want if we have skills. The latter - no-code - requires less speciality and takes less times. And there are a lot of tools around. webflow, stripe, calendly, cloudflare, github, zapier, etc are ultimately useful. But, the down side is less control for building tools. I am curious about which one is the best for MVP, and useful tools for development.

I made my personal website (https://almost.design) last year using blocs (https://blocsapp.com), a no code website builder based on bootstrap. Highly recommended if you plan on making a basic website. Just starting out my career in design, this helped me learn the basics of web dev, which in turn helped me build this website (https://thursday.social) with complete ownership and control over my design.

I've tried several tools but quickly understood that it's easier to learn to code than to build what I want combining scrappy standard out-of-the-box blocks from the no-code tools. It's almost impossible to personalize and finetune most of these blocks exactly the way you want, and you have to learn very specific settings that each no-code platform uses. Unlike code, these skills are non-transferrable. Once you learn at least one language, you can easily add new languages to your stack - they use similar logic, that is clear and straightforward. In a way, it is beautiful, like math. And they also have a big online community, where you can find answers to your questions and even chunks of code that you just need to copy and paste. Try that with the no-code tools: once you need something a bit different from the standard solution - well, you're out of luck)
