#39 No-Code Tools: Turning Ideas into Reality

In this episode, I explore the rise of no-code tools and how they are empowering people to create functional websites and apps without needing to write a single line of code. I also share my personal experience of a no-code bootcamp and how it's helping the rest of the cohort to learn new skills and bring their ideas to life.


Some no code tool:

00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:12,600
Hello and welcome to a new
episode of the CTO show with

2
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,300
mammoths.
My name is Muhammad.

3
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,200
I share daily insights about the
latest news and Trends in

4
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,800
technology, while exploring the
problem solving abilities.

5
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,900
I also talked about startups and
entrepreneurs behind that

6
00:00:24,900 --> 00:00:27,000
Innovative products and
services.

7
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,800
Let's get started with this
episode today.

8
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:36,800
I want to talk and discuss about
the rise of no code tools and

9
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,600
how they are, enabling people to
turn their ideas into reality,

10
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:44,300
without needing to write a
single line of code.

11
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,600
I'll be also sharing with you a
close look of my personal

12
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:53,700
experience of the first week of
a boot camp, that I just started

13
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,200
last week and how things are
really starting to move.

14
00:00:57,300 --> 00:01:02,500
So it Dive In.
First, let's talk about the rise

15
00:01:02,500 --> 00:01:07,300
of no code tools.
Have you ever had an idea or

16
00:01:07,300 --> 00:01:10,600
project for yourself or your
business?

17
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,900
But you didn't have the
technical skills to bring it to

18
00:01:13,900 --> 00:01:17,600
life?
Well you are not alone, many

19
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:22,200
people have great ideas but lack
the coding expertise, required

20
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,700
to build a website or an app
from scratch.

21
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:30,500
This is where no code tools.
Comes in this platforms offer

22
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:33,900
drag-and-drop interface has and
pre-built components.

23
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:38,600
That allow anyone to create a
functional website, or app in

24
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:44,100
matter of days or even sometimes
hours without needing to know

25
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:47,500
how to code.
Now, of course, I'm not saying

26
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:51,200
this would replace the full need
of a code, the more advanced

27
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,900
stuff you would require for your
idea.

28
00:01:54,700 --> 00:02:01,400
Of course, you might need to
return to have code but just to

29
00:02:01,500 --> 00:02:07,600
start just to have a minimum
Viable product, these tools are

30
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,600
really enough to get you off the
ground.

31
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:17,200
Local tools are not only easy to
use, but they all also save time

32
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,800
and money.
No code tools are not only easy

33
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,200
to use but they also save time
and money.

34
00:02:24,700 --> 00:02:28,700
For example, a small business
owner who needs a website can

35
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:33,800
create one using no code
platform instead of spending.

36
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:38,500
Thousands of dollars and months
on building something from

37
00:02:38,500 --> 00:02:41,700
scratch.
This means they can launch their

38
00:02:41,700 --> 00:02:44,700
website faster and a fraction of
the cost.

39
00:02:46,700 --> 00:02:51,100
Now, let me share with you, my
experience of the first week of

40
00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:56,800
the boot camp that I started.
I decided, although I have been

41
00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:02,900
exploring no code tools for the
past two to three years, but I

42
00:03:02,900 --> 00:03:10,800
wanted a platform where I can
commit and I can also get into

43
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,700
having some same minded people
to interact with.

44
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,700
And this is why I choose the
hundred days of no code platform

45
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:25,800
where I enrolled.
And in just one week, I have

46
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,900
learned a lot of things related
to no code tools and how to

47
00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:30,700
build.
Really.

48
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:36,100
Maybe it looks simple, but yet
powerful things with the no code

49
00:03:36,100 --> 00:03:42,800
tools, the power of such boot
camps or cohorts is not only

50
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:46,000
regarding the material that you
take there.

51
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,800
In my opinion, the biggest power
is the direct feedback you get

52
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:55,100
from a larger community and this
is really something that will

53
00:03:55,100 --> 00:04:02,200
keep pushing you to dedicate to
the main goal that pushed you to

54
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,000
enroll in this boot camp or
cohort for me.

55
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:09,400
Knowing these Technologies from
quite some time.

56
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,100
And I will share some of the
tools we used.

57
00:04:12,100 --> 00:04:16,600
I can name them so we use
software, we use the APA we use.

58
00:04:16,700 --> 00:04:24,500
Notion and of course, apis to do
a few simple automations but

59
00:04:24,500 --> 00:04:28,700
what I wanted to say like really
get you excited again because

60
00:04:28,700 --> 00:04:32,700
you're building something, you
thought you would not ever be

61
00:04:32,700 --> 00:04:37,500
able to do that.
So it was quite an intensive

62
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,500
because it's little bit late at
night for me, but that was

63
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:46,600
completely fine and I got some
cool stuff built in hole.

64
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:50,700
Will you will start to share it
on LinkedIn and Twitter in the

65
00:04:50,700 --> 00:04:54,400
coming weeks.
So there you have it.

66
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,700
The rise of no code tools and
how they are, enabling people to

67
00:04:57,700 --> 00:05:00,700
bring their ideas to life this
what we covered today.

68
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,700
I also like shared with you my
own experience, I will share

69
00:05:04,700 --> 00:05:10,500
some links as well both in the
episode description and on the

70
00:05:10,500 --> 00:05:13,400
social media as well.

71
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,900
listening.
