“We started Glide as an easy way to make an employee database.”
It’s quickly become much more than that. Now their ambitions are for a billion people to build their first app with Glide.
In the same way that WordPress, Wix, and Squarespace made it easy for anyone to make a website, Glide wants to do the same with apps.
While you don’t need to know how to code, you will learn about how software works as you link a google spreadsheet to Glide and watch an app come out on the other side. As you toggle back and forth between a spreadsheet and a nice interface, it’s easy to see how changes in the database create changes in the app.
While they started simple and small, once it became the best way to make an employee database, it quickly become the best way to make dozens of others apps. Focus on one use case, and know that it will lead to make more.
