Summary

When the coronavirus crisis hit, developers like Brent Summers used no-code software tools to quickly build web apps that could help people respond to the crisis. Summers built GiveLocal, a small business gift card app, in just three days using Bubble's no-code platform, which allowed him and his co-founder Justin Mares to skip writing code and focus on building the app's functionality. The app was acquired by USA Today within a week of launch and became known as "Support Local." Summers chose to build with no-code because he believed it offered speed and efficiency in development, allowing him to get an advantage over other startups during the crisis. No-code platforms like Bubble are becoming increasingly powerful and popular, and their growth is predicted to reach $21.2 billion by 2022, making them a key tool for entrepreneurs looking to build software without extensive coding knowledge.
