Webflow No Code Movement

All right guys, so before we get started
into building our landing page I wanna

talk about the NoCode movement, what
is this mean? what's the difference?

how would this affect developers, right?
First, let's understand the NoCode movement.

The reason why is called the NoCode
movement is because of the idea that we

can easily take an idea from the ideation
phase in any business and quickly deploy it

on the market, and so there is this awesome
tools that came out that started to change

the game in making that posible, one of
those tools of course is Webflow, but it's

not the only tool that is out there.

So let's take a look at some of the
platforms and solutions that are

right now on the market that help
us develop these solutions much faster.

#1 of course is Webflow, I personally love
this tool, coming from a +15 years

experience coding websites I really wish
this tool existed way long ago. Webflow

allows developers like myself to build out
these landing pages so much faster than

having to start out from a clean slate right?
So, let's take a look at some of the other

tools out there, like for example Shopify.
Shopify is a tool that allows you to

create stores really quickly, you can
start selling any products, any service

and it would guide you through a process
of creating all that you need to start

selling quickly.

So, as we can see here Bubble is one
of the most powerful NoCode platforms,

go check it out it's incredibly cool, but
there is a little bit of a learning curve

just to understand how you get to start
from a prototype into iterating into like

actually launching it. It's more about
logistics and finding the algorithm and

how you go from step 1 to step 3.

Another one you should check out it's
makerpad.co the community itself allows

you to learn and build all the projects
without writing any code so they also

have some partners including Webflow,
Zapier and Airtable. So this is kind of

like a market place where you can actually
look at some of the featured tools that

they have specifically for NoCode, so if
you are looking for a specific thing that

you need to build you can come here
into the marketplace and start checking

out some of the things that you could use,
apply those tools into your Webflow or

Bubble app and then start integrating
each other with the API, it's a pretty cool

marketplace, I really recommend you guys
start kind of bookmarking these links,

because that's exactly what the NoCode
movement is, is the idea of connecting

things with all these different tools in
order for you to accomplish your goal

either being a business or an app that
you or your team need to launch.

A couple of other tools that are very
known on the market right now of

course is Squarespace, they have an
interesting tool that allows you to build

websites fairly quickly but they use
templates of course, it kind of limits

you into what they have already in their
templates directory, so you kind of have

to play around with of elements and
skinning things, so that's something that

if you really think that will help your
client or yourself that you don't wanna

kind of fiddle with the technical part
I recommend you go and them out.

And finally another one coming from
Wix.com is Editor X, this one I have not

personally tried it, I have had bad
experience with Wix.com before but

It looks promising, it looks like they
have a lot of similarities with Webflow

and how you can build a site fairly
quickly, giving you some more power

over design.
Learning Webflow is actually pretty

easy if you just check out their videos
and tutorials on their website you can

start kind of getting the basics of how
to utilize Webflow, but I personally felt

like I wanted to take out a course that
would take you on a journey of building

out an entire landing page with advance,
a little bit more advance interactions

and it followed kind of the pathway
from design in Figma and transforming

it into something actual functional
where you can actually click through,

see the animation and launch it live.

So, let's jump in into our next lesson so
we can take a look at how we could start

setting up our project.
All right guys I'll see you there!
