How no-code tools helped during India’s COVID surge

Vensy Krishna, a lawyer-turned-tech-educator, leveraged no-code development to create an app that connected people in Hyderabad with essential resources during the Delta variant surge of COVID-19, when the city's healthcare system was overwhelmed. She utilized Google Sheets and Glide, a no-code platform, to build the app, Hyd COVID Resources, in just two hours, which quickly gained international attention and support from hundreds of volunteers. The app's scalability and the ability to onboard non-technical volunteers were facilitated by no-code tools like Google Forms, Airtable, and Notion, allowing the team to efficiently manage and update information. Vensy emphasizes the importance of documentation, building in public, and teaching no-code as a skill to empower communities to address immediate needs. Her experience highlights how no-code tools offer an affordable, accelerated, and accessible approach to creating impactful solutions, encouraging a community-driven response to global challenges.
