How Can You Optimize Front-end Performance in No-Code Apps? 🚀 In the no-code universe, the magic happens on the frontend - where every click, scroll, and interaction takes place. It's where users experience our applications firsthand, making frontend performance not just important, but absolutely crucial ❗ Why obsess over front-end performance? Because in the fast-paced digital world, every second counts. Users expect lightning-fast responses and seamless interactions. A laggy interface? That's a surefire way to push your users away. Here's the key takeaway 👇 Optimizing your no-code application's frontend isn't just about enhancing speeds; 𝐢𝐭'𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. It's about creating a seamless bridge between your users and your services, ensuring every interaction is smooth, every page load is quick, and every user journey is interruption-free. 🌟 Strategies to consider: 1. Minimize the use of heavy elements that slow down your page. 2. Leverage efficient design practices that keep your app light and fast. 3. Focus on user-centric optimization - because at the end of the day, their experience is your app's ultimate performance indicator. At havenocode our specialists embrace the power of no-code low-code platforms by not just building applications but by optimizing them for the pinnacle of user experience 🚀 Remember, in the realm of digital interactions, performance is king! #softwaredevelopment #nocode #lowcode #developers

Is design-driven development better? Yes. Definitely. Imagine having to build an entire apartment building without a blueprint. It’s not easy, you gotta do a lot of guesswork, and it might fall apart after it’s done. With design-driven development, you’re starting off with a full-fledged design for your app. All flows and features are drawn out and clear. You can write accurate user stories and make better development estimates. Developers will have a visual starting point and won’t need to turn into designers themselves. It’s a great way to settle on key app features before spending thousands on development hours. Features can be added and removed much faster. What do you think about this method? Do you start off development projects with a design or do you jump into code?

Changing a web app without writing any code in under a minute — that's the future of building products. My co-founder Daniel Farrell put together a quick demo to show you how it's done with Onlook.dev Highlights from the video: 1. One click to turn a web app into editable layouts 2. Adjust a live site as quickly as designing in Figma 3. Push design changes into live code via GitHub We're starting to onboard teams from our waitlist and if you're not on it already, sign up at Onlook.dev #onlookdev #productdesign #nocode #lowcode #webdesign #engineering #tech #designinnovation #creativedesign #digitaldesign 

Design and code #React apps with ease. Infragistics App Builder streamlines your #development workflow with drag-and-drop #UI design and automatic React #CodeGeneration.

Agile development means moving fast, but quality and speed must go hand in hand. It's a hassle when something as simple as adding a modal slows you down. 💫 But what if you could implement those essential popups or dialogue boxes in your React app with just one click?😃 That's exactly what this feature offers. DhiWise smartly picks up modal designs from your Figma URL and lets you add them to your app instantly. 🎊 With a single click, your onClick methods are set, and your modals are ready to engage users.🎉 Try this out as it Builds Instantly and has 0 dependency. https://lnkd.in/gfnuCszz Turning the tedious task of modal implementation into a one-click wonder- such tools just make my day.🥳 #developercommunity #frontend #figmadesign #softwareengineering #testandtry #dhiwise

I am not a developer, but I’ve built GATHER app. 90% of it anyway (I outsource the complex dev to a partner in SA & a few urgent calls to former colleagues like Martin Hansen and Martyn Simpson). GATHER is built on a low-code platform. Many exist. Bubble, Glide, FlutterFlow all offer the ability to build your MVP at a rapid pace to a varying degree of custom configuration. I gave all 3 a try, and settled on FlutterFlow. Glide is super simple so if you have zero tech experience it’s the best for building something quickly to test but it lacked the ability to achieve the design I wanted. Bubble is a step up in terms of design ability but also the need for technical experience. It still lacked the design capability of FlutterFlow & FlutterFlow is fully extensible so when we’re ready to move our stack we can do so easily. FlutterFlow is also multi-platform (iOS, Android and Web) so great for coverage. There were plenty of mistakes along the way: authentication can be a tough one to nail and I had to rebuild the app before launch at least once ☹️ but now it’s all up and running, and we can make enhancements in hours rather than weeks 👷 We also get great feedback from our users on the UI (even though I cringe when I see it - because it can and will be so much better). A few things I can recommend that helped me for anyone else considering DIY: 🎨 UX/UI Inspiration: Dribbble (plus take inspo from any apps you love to use) ✏️ Documenting your UX/UI: Figma 👨🏻🏫 Tutorials: YouTube, especially from James NoCode (who is a master on the platform) 🛜 Friends, Colleagues, Network: I think I definitely begged, borrowed and stole more than I should have from friends & my network for advice/help BUT they were always kind enough to help (more on that another time) - think of who can help you, and remember: if you don’t ask, you don’t get!

Have you ever heard of #Flutter? 💻Better known as a game-changer for cross-platform apps, this open-source user interface (UI) software development kit released by Google in 2018 is an excellent opportunity for those looking for fast prototyping. 👉 In fact, one of Flutter's benefits is its widgets. For example, hot reloading gives developers quick feedback about the changes in the layout, which means that every time you make a change, you will see it reflected in the moment, helping to speed up the development process. 👉Another critical benefit is the pixel-perfect designs and components that create a great UI. With a rich set of widgets and extensive capabilities for creating complex custom widgets, developers will have enormous freedom in creating the UI, generating a native interface in minutes. So, if you are interested in understanding the development process of Flutter, you will find the links to our blog articles on the comment section. #ThinkUp #OpenSource #MobileCompany #AppDevelopment

One invaluable tip I've learned as a Bubble developer is the effectiveness of "Reusable Elements". These components have been a game-changer in my development journey, allowing me to streamline my workflow and ensure consistency across my apps effortlessly. Reusable elements simplify the process of creating common UI components like headers, footers, buttons, or form inputs. Instead of recreating these elements from scratch each time, I can design them once and reuse them throughout my app. This not only saves time but also ensures a cohesive design and user experience. Moreover, any updates made to a reusable element automatically propagate across all instances where it's used. This means I can make changes or fixes in one place, knowing that they'll be reflected everywhere else. This scalability and maintenance ease have been crucial in managing evolving projects. So, if you're diving into Bubble development, don't overlook the power of reusable elements – they're a game-changer for efficiency and consistency in your app-building journey. #nocode #nocodeweb #bubbleio #developer #development #design #apps #website
