Common Flairs
Who's Here
Non-technical founders, marketers, operators, and business owners building without code. Also includes developers exploring no-code for speed. Interested in practical solutions over theoretical discussions.
Common Mistakes on r/nocode
Avoid these pitfalls that get marketers banned or ignored.
Claiming no-code can replace all development
The community knows no-code has limitations. Overpromising invites pushback from experienced builders.
Instead
Be balanced: "I built X with no-code, hit limits on Y, and might add custom code for Z." Realistic framing builds credibility.
Promoting a no-code tool without genuine experience
Many tools are promoted by affiliates without real usage. The community spots fake reviews quickly.
Instead
Share genuine experience: "I've built 3 projects on [tool]. Here's what it handles well and where I struggled."
Asking which tool to use without requirements
"What's the best no-code tool?" is unanswerable without context. Every tool has different strengths.
Instead
Be specific: "Building a marketplace with user auth and payments. Comparing Bubble vs. Adalo. Budget is $50/month."
Dismissing code entirely
Some community members use no-code as part of a hybrid approach. Anti-code absolutism alienates developers.
Instead
Acknowledge the spectrum: "I use no-code for the MVP, custom code for performance-critical parts."
Not sharing the tool/stack you used
Showcase posts without tool information are frustrating. People want to know how you built it.
Instead
Always include your stack: "Built with Bubble for backend, Webflow for marketing site, Zapier connecting to Stripe."
