Really useful and interesting book from practical perspective because it conveys all the elements of a journey on building an app with no coding experience. To start with, the book showcases the step by step guide on creating a no code technical solution from the point of finding an idea that solves a problem as well as guides through the whole process of creating a solution with mentions and links to all software products out there. The book is very detailed and helps to grasp the ideas even if you have literally zero experience in coding. Most importantly is to remember that everything starts with an idea.

As technology becomes more and more accessible to the masses, it makes sense that 'no code' options for building apps will become increasingly available, allowing anyone to build an app for their business, personal use, or whatever the case may be.

This book did a good job of explaining the premise of 'no coding' and helping to make it accessible to people, such as myself, who do not have a background in computer programming and do not have the time to learn programming languages.

well done.
