Technology evolves quickly. A new tool or new features can quickly replace several tools. For what it is to create "without code" on the web; an application or website, here are, in my opinion, the 3 tools to follow closely for this end of year 2022 and especially in 2023.

Platforms, showcase site, web applications: my trifecta!

1. Webflow

More and more known, the Webflow CMS is the new deal in terms of platform and website development without code. And there is a lot to it!

• A visual interface, which makes the development comparable to a video game 🎮
• Absolutely no design limits, it's the photoshop of web creation!
• Fast websites (AWS hosting & clean semantic code),
• 360° control over SEO,
• A supportive community,
• The possibility of collaborating with several people simultaneously on the same project,

And new features are released every quarter. Some examples with the latest ones: Membership and Logic.

2. Wized

Wized, recently acquired by Finsweet, is a no-code tool designed exclusively to be integrated with Webflow. Wized makes it possible to create a no-code application (webapp) on Webflow. So it's more than an alternative to Bubble, because you get the benefits of Bubble, with the quality and performance of a Webflow site! Wow!

With its acquisition by Finsweet, the development of Wized should accelerate. The product team now has new resources, both human and financial. We can't wait to see the results!

Ps: during the State Of Flow event, I was able to attend several demonstrations of application creation with a Webflow and Wized front-end. And I can assure you that the results are excellent!!! Stay tuned 🍿

3. Xano  

"Xano gives you a scalable server, a flexible database and a No-Code API builder that can transform, filter and integrate data from anywhere."

Xano, is a so-called back-end tool. In its category ofno code tool, it is comparable to airtable. (It is possible to import your airtable DB on Xano in a few clicks).

Xano allows you to create the business logic behind your user interface. This logic is essential to create a web application for example.
