Pros from Real Users Pros For our internal workflows and tooling, we now use retool for everything. It is super easy and quick to get our critical operations workflows built. Excellent support from their team too!		Pros & Cons from Real Users Pros - Wappler brings the best of both worlds by allowing the user to either develop by drag and drop of from code. - It is seamless and flexible to use, especially for web development. - Its native panel helps a lot with CSS designing and visual management. - With Wappler a user can create both front end and backend of the application. It's very easy to design and developed a website. Drag and drop to customize. Prebuilt templates to make professional look designs. Highly customizable and user friendly. It allows you to build complex, fast and well structured code for dynamic website and mobile apps very quickly. Pretty much everything is included within the program - front end page design based on Bootstrap 4, code editing with syntax highlighting and assistance, FTP, Git, powerful results without touching code, etc. And it's available on all operating systems. Wappler is incredibly flexible when it comes to web app development by visual interactions and no-to-little-coding. Being based on bootstrap, it leverages one of the best and most widely used UI frameworks of all time! Further, integrating APIs and handling server actions are a breeze. Ability to create SPA reflects on the extensiveness of this incredible software. And, you can host your app anywhere, it is a simple desktop app without any binding to lock into proprietary or otherwise cloud services - fully flexible there as well. The Design Panel is rife with features to manage CSS visually as well - this allows for making changes while seeing the live design fast and very efficient for overall development process. The Wappler design and develop environment software is really a great tool to quickly build all sort of web projects. I've build my own CMS with it, and connect that to every website I build (also with Wappler). Within 5 minutes you can create a complete CRUD functionality for your table, complete with multiple views and forms. The data api you create (server connect object) can be reused over and over for different purposes in websites, web apps and mobile or desktop applications. My experience is that, beside great data management, this software is really and finally a way better solution than the old ADDT, Webassist and Dreamweaver... all together! But to all the hand coders I say: give this a try. in no way you are bound to some software specific solution and limitations. Clean code is produced and can be easily customized in the nice editor they provide. To designers I say: now you have a opportunity to not only easily create beautiful websites/apps, but also make them dynamic with data. The UI and UX of the software follows the KISS principle. It's super easy to understand, yet it provides access to great power. The software is backed up by a motivated and large community, very active to support one another. Cons - The updates and very frequent, so much that the user has always keep up with the new features. - There are some minor bugs here and there. Overall it's an outstanding website builder. Bit of a learning curve. It took a while to grasp how to go about things but once 'the penny dropped' it's a breeze. Being a rather new software, it is rife with bugs - however, ability to manipulate on code level kinda allows you handle most stuff but while missing out on the VISUAL part of the deal! This is understandable for a new company but doesn't mean they have to try less harder. Bootstrap is kinda a bad part about this as well because it just get overwhelming sometimes. While bootstrap does add flexibility, it also does add much redundancy to the UI/UX of Wappler. Of course, software being so versatile in functionality, will take some time to really be explored. There are still area's where it can use some improvements both in more options for a specific function or more visual tools to get things done. But there is a great community that is open for suggestions, bug messages and so on. EVERY week the developers of Wappler come with an update, that not only fixes the bugs, just last wek reported, but new functionality also.
