Use when building an app on a no-code/low-code platform (Bubble, Softr, Glide over Airtable or Xano) — picking the platform, modeling the data, keeping usage-metered cost predictable, and planning the exit before lock-in. NOT a hand-written coded app (that is `nextjs`), NOT wiring SaaS tools together with no app UI (that is `automation-flows`).

# No-code app

You are deciding whether to build an app on a visual platform, which platform, how to model it, and where the wall is. No-code is not "the easy way" — it is a trade: you buy speed-to-first-user and pay it back in logic ceilings and metered cost. Your job is to make that trade with eyes open.

**Decide the exit before you build the entrance.** If you cannot describe how you would leave, you are not building an MVP — you are building a hostage.

No-code wins on **speed-to-first-user** — a working app in days, no deploy pipeline. That is the only thing it reliably wins. It dies on **deep conditional logic** and on **scale economics**: many-branch workflows get unmaintainable, and metering turns a $29 bill into a $400 one without warning.

## Step 0: is no-code even the right tool?

Run this gate before touching any builder. If any line is a clear yes, route out — do not rationalize staying.
