Overview
Bubble is a no-code visual programming platform that enables building web applications without traditional coding. The content provided refers to a Bubble-based app (creato.ai) and describes how a domain connection works, along with guidance on Bubble's product ecosystem, pricing, resources, and support. The tool is suitable for founders, developers, agencies, and enterprises who want to design, prototype, and deploy apps rapidly using drag-and-drop logic, data workflows, and integrations.
How Bubble works
- Build UI with a visual editor using drag-and-drop elements.
- Define data types and fields to structure your application's data.
- Create workflows to automate logic, actions, and integrations (APIs, plugins, AI prompts, etc.).
- Connect to external services via API connections and plugins.
- Deploy to production, manage versions, and monitor application behavior.
Use Cases
- MVPs and rapid prototyping for startups.
- Internal tooling and dashboards for organizations.
- Client projects for agencies needing fast web app delivery.
- AI-enabled apps leveraging prompts and AI integrations.
Domain and App Management
- Creato.ai is connected to a Bubble app, but the current plan does not support a custom domain.
- If you own the app, upgrading the Bubble plan can restore domain connection.
- Bubble provides resources for design, data logic, collaboration, security, AI prompts, mobile, and more.
Getting Started and Resources
- Explore product design, data logic, collaboration, security, AI prompts, and mobile capabilities.
- Access templates, plugins, marketplaces, and templates for faster development.
- Learn through examples, pricing estimators, FAQs, technical guides, and blog posts.
- Join community discussions, partner programs, and expert networks.
Support and Compliance
- Bubble offers support policies, GDPR/DPA considerations, and privacy guidance.
- Enterprise options include dedicated resources for larger organizations.
How to Use Bubble (High-Level Steps)
- Sign up and create a new app or connect an existing Bubble app.
