The mission of Backendless is to simplify the app development process. We strive to empower software developers like you to build apps without spending any time on monotonous and repetitive coding tasks. In most cases, a developer working with Backendless should barely think about the server-side and focus entirely on the user experience. Backendless and Dropsource give you the power to create a mobile app in its entirety without coding.
We have seen thousands of apps getting built the standard way – that is, using code. Whether it is Java, Objective-C, Swift, JS or C#, developers still write, compile, debug and profile code when building the client-side of their mobile apps. Can the process be simpler? Wouldn’t it be awesome if you could build a mobile app without knowing a programming language? Or better yet, how cool would it be if you could get all the boring and annoying parts of creating a skeleton of a mobile app using an easy-to-use and a powerful UI and after that jump into the code to handle more advanced tasks at that level? Yes, that would be awesome.
What’s even more awesome is that such a solution is available now and it integrates nicely with Backendless. Welcome to Dropsource – a platform for developing mobile apps without any coding. And if you want to get the code, it will generate a complete Android Studio or Xcode project for you.
As the saying goes, it is better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times. The video below starts with a demo of a mobile (iOS) client-server app built with Dropsource. This is a classic ToDo app which uses the Backendless Database to store data and demonstrates a complete set of the database operations (Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete – CRUD). Right after the demo in the video, there is a detailed walkthrough showing how to build the app.
If you follow the instructions, you will be developing the same app and learn how to use Dropsource and integrate it with Backendless. Enjoy!
I like to create an social Media network platform app to have messenger, group’s ,friends, posting, commenting. I live on social security and after I pay all my bills I’m broke.
Hi John, you can build your entire app on our platform for free with the Springboard Plan. You won’t have to pay anything until you’re ready to launch.
