Summary of "Why you should NOT use Bubble.io (Brutally Honest)"
Video Summary
In the video titled "Why you should NOT use Bubble.io (Brutally Honest)," the speaker, Matt, discusses three main reasons why Bubble.io may not be the best choice for building web applications, especially for those without coding experience.
- Steep Learning Curve: Although Bubble.io is marketed as a no-code platform, Matt emphasizes that it is complex and requires some coding knowledge to navigate effectively. He shares his personal experience of relying on his coding background to solve problems and build workflows, indicating that newcomers without coding experience may struggle significantly.
- Poor front-end design Capabilities: Matt criticizes Bubble.io's front-end design tools, stating that they are not user-friendly for those looking to create visually appealing web applications. He recommends using platforms like Webflow for front-end design, as it offers better templates and design options compared to Bubble.io, which he describes as having subpar and unresponsive templates.
- Scaling Issues: The speaker notes that while Bubble.io may work well for simple applications, it tends to slow down and become buggy as more data and functionality are added. This can hinder the development process and lead to a poor user experience, particularly for larger applications that require smooth performance.
Overall, Matt concludes that while Bubble.io can be useful for building minimum viable products (MVPs), it may not be suitable for developing robust, scalable applications. He suggests that those looking for a seamless user experience and greater customization should consider other options.
