For
Beginners exploring how digital products and no-code apps are built.
Prerequisites
No coding required · Access to the current external tools used in the lessons
Expected effort
About 2 to 4 hours plus prototype work
Tools and materials
A modern browser · An account with the external no-code tool used by the lesson
What you will be able to do
Plan and present a small working no-code app prototype.

By the end, you should be able to

  • Model app data and user flows
  • Build and test a small no-code prototype
  • Explain the durable concepts behind the chosen tool

    Checkpoint: show what you can do

    You should be able to

    • • Model an app's data as collections, properties and relationships before building any screen
    • • Build the working parts of a no-code app: lists, filters, forms, conditional visibility, payments and chat
    • • Choose between two no-code platforms for a stated situation, and revise that choice when the money or the reach changes
    • • Say what a platform will not do for you, and check that against the vendor rather than against a course page

    Take an organisation you know and an app they could use. Say which platform you would build it in, name the one constraint that decided it, and say what happens to the app in year three when the money that paid for it has ended.

    Evidence: One sentence naming the constraint that decided the platform and the recurring cost you accepted.

The story

Build mobile apps without writing code.

A mobile development program using low-code/no-code tools. Students built working apps with Adalo and Bubble, from data structure to lists, orders and payments.

Lesson by lesson, each student went from an idea to a complete, publishable app, learning that building digital products today starts with creativity, not necessarily with code.
