Why choose Bubble?
Launch sooner. Translating a design into a working application in Bubble is much faster than traditional development.
Save time. It can take weeks or months for a development team to turn a design into a working application. Bubble closes the gap between design and development.
Iterate faster. Anyone on the team can make changes, not just developers.
Lower costs. Hiring an in-house engineering team generally requires a six figure annual budget, even for small organizations. With Bubble, you can build a fully-functional web application yourself.

How does Bubble compare to traditional languages and frameworks like JS, CSS, React or Ruby on Rails?
Bubble is a real programming language, designed to replace other programming languages and frameworks traditionally used for web development. This includes back-end technologies such as Ruby on Rails, Django, and PHP, as well as front-end technologies such as HTML, CSS, and Javascript.
Unlike traditional coding technologies, Bubble assumes that you're building a multi-user interactive application for web or mobile.

What’s different about working with Bubble vs. traditional programming?
In traditional languages, you work with low-level concepts such as clients, servers, databases, data models, and HTML templating. You work in text documents, and it’s up to you to know what to type.
In Bubble, you can work in clicks, rather than code, and apply higher-level concepts such as “show this button”, “send an email”, and “turn this font color red.” Design your page using a visual editor, and write the logic of your application with a system that prompts you with suggestions, so you’re never at a loss for what to type next.

How does Bubble compare to website builders like Webflow, Wordpress, Squarespace or Wix?
Tools like Wordpress, Squarespace, Wix, and Webflow let you build a website without knowing HTML or CSS. Most of these tools allow you to create different pages, upload images and media, create a blog, build a form, or set up a shopping cart. These tools generally don't give you control over your application's flow and design, and instead offer templated solutions to common use cases.
Bubble gives you complete control over exactly what happens on your website, at every level. Define custom categories of data, take actions such as sending an email or connecting to Facebook, and specify situation-specific logic.
Website builders are great for building simple visual websites with out-of-the-box basic functionality. For everything else, there's Bubble.
