Summary

A serverless and codeless way to try out Twilio's communications features is now available through TwiML Bins, a new visual tool in the Twilio Console. With TwiML Bins, users can quickly build and prototype with popular features like Cloud-based Voicemail or SMS masking and forwarding without writing any code. The process starts by choosing a suitable number from the Twilio Phone Numbers Console, then creating a new TwiML Bin to define the desired behavior for incoming messages or calls. Users can use pre-built templates and customize their TwiML Bins with minimal setup, making it easy to implement features like SMS Forwarding or Cloud Voicemail in under 20 minutes. The tool is designed to be user-friendly and allows developers to focus on building new applications without the need for server management or coding expertise.
