Anyone can code. And that's not really new. For many years now we've had systems that allow non-developers to use advanced UIs to dictate how websites and apps should behave and perform.

One of the things I like to remind my fellow developers of is that we were "no-coding" back in the early days of Wordpress. Often times we picked that route to either save time or to skip past the mundane parts of setting up a website in order to just focus on our unique design or features.

What is new is that now there are exponentially more tools and no-code platforms than there were back in the day. My personal love will always be the automation tools, which are more recent than your standard website builders.

Now that this is the case, makers and designers like you are in the drivers seat, and developers like me are looking at all of the opportunities to build more no-code tools to support people like you. Let that sink in and just feel good about it for a bit... 😊

Then check out today's introductions...

I went to school for 3D Animation so Naker immediately caught my eye. Their 3D experience designer let's you build 3D interactions into your site such as animated backgrounds, gamified forms, and product storytelling.

I'm so excited about this one because this is one of those tools that will take your product to the next level and have people saying "No way" when you tell them you built it all without code.

The pricing for Naker is even better. It's FREE for your first 2,000 background/form views and your first 500 product story views. Check out the site and their demos right on the home page. Then take your no-code product to the next level! 🍄

Cynthia is a Project Manager at Lambda School (which I'm a huge fan of) and a no-code enthusiast. I found Cynthia when I stumbled across one of her blog posts on proper Slack etiquette, one of my pet peeves and a different story for another time.

One of the things that drew my attention to Cynthia is that she highlights the value of no-code in the B2B space, where I operate often. She also makes these awesome no-code stickers that you should definitely pick up

I love meeting new people that are supportive of no-code in general, but especially when they're in other sectors of the space besides maker/startup/entrepreneur. It's exciting to me because it's another sign of the massive growth of this movement! 🚀

I noticed that every day I have one distinct (usually short) period of hyper-creativity. I'm working to pair my awareness of this part of my day with tools that allow me create in batches. Now it feels like I found a power-up. So excited to share what I'm working on next. ⚡🍄✨
