I downloaded it and already started reading it. I'm very interested myself into the nocode movement. The ebook is very interesting and flows well. I love the comparison with music making in the beginning!

Well, from a quick initial read, I'm pretty disappointed that you talk about "history" and then ignore two entire generations of tools. Was anybody over 30 involved in writing this? Seriously, there was so much good stuff in the era of standalone desktop then client-server noCode tools you could at least have mentioned. (I downloaded the PDF and searched for at least three products that should have been mentioned, finding none, as well as reading the supposed history).

Hey hunters! 👋 Today, we are releasing our new ebook — The no code revolution. 🚀 Available for free here: https://wfl.io/thenocoderevolution The no code revolution is an ebook that uncovers what the no code movement means for the future of makers and businesses, and how it can benefit web development and marketing teams. For the past few years, we’ve seen individuals, and teams, leverage no code platforms to build amazing products. From simple websites to full-blown web applications, no code has allowed makers to break the code barrier and turn their ideas into a reality. This has caused a rising trend in the ability to quickly go from 0 to 1 — that is, going from idea to initial product. But no code doesn’t just stop there. In fact, while the name implies that you don’t have to code, what you’re really doing is taking the principles of code and applying them in a visual user interface. In a sense, no code tools can help speed up many business processes while scaling from 1 to 100. From automating routine tasks to integrating new features, no code allows team members of all backgrounds to take ownership of product areas that once only a developer could understand. We hope this ebook inspires you and gives you a greater understanding that the no code movement is just an evolution of core principles that has driven technological innovation for millennia. Namely, the desire to democratize and scale processes, tools, and access to mediums that were formerly available only to a small set of people. Stories of creating initial MVPs with no code, to getting funding from Y Combinator and scaling — it's all in this ebook. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoyed writing it! Here’s to multiplying the potential of what humankind can create. 🥂

I have been interested in the no code movement but wonder if it's worth the time learning. I will read the book and hopefully know if it's worth it by then

@fractal I think it is! Especially if you’re a visual learner (like me) and don’t know how to code (but want to). For example, learning how to use Webflow enabled me to learn how to code websites in HTML, CSS, & Javascript really fast. I had tried to learn code beforehand but I didn’t really get the aha-moment until I started using no code tools.

I don't wanna discourage anyone of using these tools as I think they can be really valuable and powerful for a lot of scenarios but, having experienced both ways of doing things I can assure you that code is just so much better and much more powerful than any no-code tool. I think if you're serious about software it makes sense to pick a technology that you like ( Native Apple apps, JavaScript Cross-platform, Unity, Android, or whatever ) and then learn the hell out of it, even if it takes years. You won't regret it. I personally was very attached to no code-tools like Webflow, Divi, and Coda but now, after years of studying I've become proficient in ES6 JavaScript and React and I don't regret it at all, it makes me so excited for my future because soon I will be able to create my own products and start my own startup without having to be limited by the features offered in no code tools.

@javier_trevino1 I agree in a perfect world, everyone knowing how to code would be the best. The issue is the learning curve with code is impractical for the billions of non-technical people of the world to train on, especially short-term. It's too slow. The intro illustrates it well that no-code democratizes software development. As a business owner, you don't want to tell your whole company to go to a coding bootcamp for a year to leverage themselves more. You just tell them to use no-code tools. Then, if you're going to build a startup, just get traction on a no-code stack (which is up to 10x quicker and more cost effective than code for getting PMF, presuming you don't need highly custom features in v1), then migrate the core pieces to code, and hook the non-core no-code pieces up to the code foundation to keep scaling.
