Create beautiful, dynamic, multisided web applications — without writing a single line of code.Boundless lets you build the web site of your dreams. No code required.

Ok being known as the 'no-code person' I'm always looking for new tools to push this movement forward. When Nolan reached out to show me Boundless I was astounded by how quick and powerful it was. You can have: - login/signup - invite systems - custom workflows - dynamic data powered with formulas - user profiles - forums These use-cases are a HUGE deal for the no-code movement. People often get confused and concerned with using multiple tools and sticking them together but with Boundless a lot of the heavy lifting is in one place. I can't wait for the things I'll be building with Boundless for Makerpad! p.s. Boundless is now one of the first tools featured on makerpad: https://www.makerpad.co/company/...

Hi Hunters, Really excited to share what we've been working on at Boundless with you. We’re offering a tool that will help creators easily build beautiful, database-backed web apps without writing a single line of code. On the front end, you can create a consistent look and feel by updating your fonts and overall theme in one place. On the backend, Boundless forms save data in a way that will let you use it throughout your site. You can display data dynamically with Variants and Formulas, allowing you to show swappable information to your visitors based on variables you set. The apps we generate automatically come with a concept of users already wired up, which allow for folks to create some very cool applications. Here are some examples of what people have already built: * An Unsplash clone * Hand drawn Emoji Service - Pay $15 and get a hand drawn Emoji of yourself (https://www.mymoji.co) * Help site * Viral lead flow where people can refer their friends * Blog/Static marketing site We have a lot of integrations already: * Stripe * Slack * Email * Google Analytics * Segment * Custom email servers With a lot more planned. One last fun thing: the Boundless app you make is a Single Page App that offer a lightening fast experience for your customers while still being search engine friendly. Would love to hear what you think, suggestions and feedback are welcome!

@nolan_evans Hi mate, I have just started using Bubble and came across this post. Looks very interesting. Can you clarify what you mean by 'Boundless app you make is a Single Page App'?

Hi @ace_bevacqua A single page app is a javascript application - typically built with React, Ember, or Angular where the page you see is all rendered by javascript (typically clientside). Facebook, Gmail, Netflix, Trello are all single page apps. There are some advantages and disadvantages to single page apps. Typical Pro's: - Super snappy once the page has loaded (think instant page loads on link clicking, you can see this for example on https://www.mymoji.co, compare this to a typical wordpress site) - You can build interactions (live updating list, realtime filtering) that would be a lot more difficult in a standard html app Typical Con's: - Harder to support SEO as the page is rendered on the client side vs server side (we take care of this for you with Boundless) - Javascript has to be enabled on the client side Single page apps are typically made by engineers as there are very few web app builders that can generate a single page app. I am excited about what possibilities this will open up for web apps built with Boundless.

Can you outline some of the ways you’ve distinguished Boundless from its major competitors in the space? Looks awesome!

Hi @devolutionist - So there are a few thing that set us apart: 1. Our forms do not go into the void - they instead are easily referenced allowing you to pull your data back out. This enables you to do quite a bit more than Webflow, Wordpress, Airtable, etc. When pulling data back out you can use excel like formula's to perform interesting operations on your data, here is a gif of me calculating the number of referrals on our viral lead site template:

You can see the result here: https://fr3em258qxdwp3am4zvb7s3g... 2. We focus on generating a consistent theme for your site via our styles page. We generate a style guide (https://d3j9pdwk635p6l.cloudfron...) for every app which allows you to take our vanilla theme and turn it into a pixel perfect matching of your designs. We've been able to rebuild SquareSpace themes using our style guide editor. This approach allows you to theme a site in a way that promotes re-use so you do it once, and then your sites building blocks match the theme. In this way I think we are much better than Bubble. 3. Every Boundless app comes with a concept of users out of the box so you can build sites that are powered by user generated content vs static content the creator creates. 4. On the technology side I think our technical foundation is just better. We generate a single page app that is SEO friendly and cache the heck of out it so you have a super fast site. What this means for a site built with Boundless clicking a link doesn't trigger a full page redraw or a request to the server - it instead has all the information it needs to start painting the new page immediately.
