Bubble

Bubble is a no-code platform for building complete web applications, not just marketing sites, with a visual editor for both interface design and application logic (workflows), plus a built-in database. It has a free plan for development, and paid plans from $59 a month billed annually that add live hosting, custom domains and higher usage limits, priced around a workload unit system that measures how much computing a plan includes.

A good fit for

  • Building a full web application, not just a marketing site, without writing code
  • Founders and small teams who want application logic, database and hosting in one platform
  • Prototyping and testing an app idea on the free plan before committing to a paid tier
  • Teams that need to submit a no-code app as a native mobile build

Not a good fit for

  • Teams that want full control over their backend code or database rather than Bubble's hosted, workflow-driven model
  • Very high-traffic applications where workload unit costs can add up compared to a custom-built backend
  • Developers who prefer writing code directly rather than a visual workflow editor for application logic

About Bubble

Bubble lets people build full web applications visually: designing the interface by dragging and arranging elements, and defining application logic through visual workflows (if this happens, then do that) rather than writing code, backed by Bubble's own hosted database.

Plans are priced around workload units, a measure of the computing resources an app consumes, so more complex or higher-traffic apps need a higher plan tier or additional workload capacity, rather than a simple per-seat or per-page pricing model.

Beyond the visual editor, Bubble supports custom domains, mobile app store submissions for wrapping a Bubble app as a native mobile build, multiple app editors and branches for team collaboration on higher plans, and a component library ecosystem (plugins) for extending functionality.
