Want to learn how to make quick automation using @airtable ? Here is a short tutorial.

Problem: Everytime I create a new no-code product teardown I have to manually add it to a google spreadsheet to display on SideProjectStack.com

Let's automate this task: I've got almost 180 no-code projects in my database. I lost count but have about 100+ so listed live on Side Project Stack. They are stored in my airtable base here.

To trigger my automation, I'll add a checkbox column. The reason is I need to review each before posting live.

Excited to finannnnnlly be doing a redesign of SideProjectStack.com

It's been a long time coming. 2 years ago today I launched it on @ProductHunt and became a #1 Product of the day.

I've learned a lot. Now it's time to take it to the next level. Let's giddy-up. Back then when I launched Side Project Stack was primarily two things:

1. A list of products made with no-code and their tech stack
2. GetStackd.io which was the tool you can use to get a recommendation of which no-code tools are best suited for your app idea

When should you use @zapier?

When is it good to use @integromat?

In case you missed my interview w/ no-code automation expert @AndrewJDavison ... I summarized his key takeaways about using those two tools.

What would you add to this list?

Thread 🧵below: But first, a primer, what is automation?

Using tools like @zapier, @integromat and @parabolahq to connect apps and handle complex business logic with simple visual builders is nothing short of magic.

What's the value in them?

🤔Have you ever written a blog or thought piece and wondered... what is the best way to promote it on twitter?

I'd like to share what I learned when I ran an experiment.

👇🏼Check out the thread to see the results and what I think you will find most interesting: You may think it's obvious, like I did, but I discovered it depends on what your goals are.

I ran an experiment to find out what performs better?

If you cannot code, can you create something more powerful than a website?

I've studied dozens of Makers who launched web apps, marketplaces, community, job boards - all without code.

I'd like to share my learnings through 3 personas that are game-changers.

A #nocode thread: 👨🏾‍💻Persona #1:
The Start-up Builder

🏗How They Operate
Build a fully functioning app without code.

Why this Matters
✅No more "You need a technical co-founder" to start
✅Eliminates the need for a prototype or mvp with actual code
✅Create a very high fidelity functioning app

Be a doer. Here’s why.

I’ve watched as one writer went from nobody to #1 on medium. He never stopped shipping. Here are some quotes he provided in his recent blog post.

benjaminhardy.com/life-doesnt-re…

Napoleon Hill said in Think and Grow Rich,“Knowledge is only potential power. It becomes power only when, and if, it is organized into definite plans of action, and directed to a definite end.”

“To learn and not to do is really not to learn. To know and not to do is really not to know.”

 — Dr. Stephen Covey

1/ Not convinced #nocode is not the next big thing?

Follow the fundings.

Great article you need to check out. Here is a TL;DR---> 2/ "the trend called "No Code Startup" isn't a transient boom, it's always going to expand until software has consumed the world."
