Today, I would like to share some learnings from app development by nocode.

I started using Adalo(nocode) platform from November 2020.

My first goal was launching an app to the apple store.

It took around 2 weeks to start from scratch to reach the goal.

Even though the app was launched, no one noticed it as it existed on the app store only. People would notice easier if it was a restaurant on a road.

From this experience, I learned that marketing is really important in the app development industry.

I have launched a new app on related facebook groups, hacker news, product hunt, linkedin, twitter and so on.

I have used many platform to announce the launch.

As a nocode developer, I sometimes make what people do not want. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate from the alternative products.

At the same time, we do not know which product is going to be liked by audience as well.

So my strategy is launching as many apps as possible by nocode.

My next app idea is memorizing national flags game.

It is kind of educational app. This is my first try as well, which is really exciting.

Of course, I have to think about monetization and business model.

But I just like to create things that will benefit users and entertain them.
