App Builders

About this shelf

No-code is not one category anymore. Marketing-site builders, logic-heavy app builders, and AI generators that spit out a repo all publish something a user can open. This shelf is that mix. Pick by what you ship and who maintains it in six months, not by which demo looked faster on Twitter.

Framer and Webflow still own designed marketing surfaces. Bubble-class tools own workflows and data without a custom backend. Lovable, Bolt, and v0 sit on the border with design-to-code; we list them here when the job is “publish an app,” and we also discuss them on the design-to-code shelf and compare pages.

Featured picks cover those three jobs. The grid is the rest of the builders we catalog, including smaller makers that never show up in agency bake-offs. If you might hire engineers later, prefer an exit path. Trapped data is the real cost.

Read the Framer vs Webflow and Lovable vs v0 guides before you subscribe to two of each. Then use this page as the inventory, not a second ranking.
