Summary

HackerHouse is a platform that helps millennials in France find furnished, community housing for an affordable price. It was built by Stephane Bounmy, a full-stack developer who chose Bubble as the no-code platform to enable him to build powerful websites. The app solves the housing crisis in urban cities like Paris, promoting a modern lifestyle and providing a desk, bed, and community to its users. Users can post their rooms for rent for free or get paid and receive support through the app, while searching for places to rent is also facilitated through the website. HackerHouse has seen significant success with 3,000 visits per month and approximately 15k euros worth of transactions per month. The next steps include scaling the platform by finding more hosts and implementing notifications and better designs.
