@josh this doesn’t seem to have happened yet and unfortunately Laura is no longer a member of the team to follow up to find out the progress on the hard work the team was making in this area. I was part of a few calls for this project and was really excited by what I had seen during those calls, the tools and UI/UX were awesome, so why have they not been released? Are they even still being worked on?
Most users responding to the change in that thread are of the same mindset, it would be nice to see the feature full realized and not left half baked as just changing where we press a button doesn’t do much to improve user experience around backend workflows tab.
Will this allow for an increase in the number of items in a list field? Currently 10,000 is a lot, but if the database is going to be faster, perhaps we could get more items onto a list field, maybe 100,000?
Extremely, especially after the build up to it left many expecting the issues we have with it to not exist, such as the refreshing of the tabs as we navigate them.
I don’t suspect they could possibly be entertaining a buyout with the WU pricing bugs issue. It wouldn’t take a very experienced corporate lawyer to demonstrate at the least civil liability or potentially criminal for fraudulently inflated valuation with all the bugs in the system…at least from my perspective and testing there are lots of bugs in it. Especially with all the bug reports, public posts etc., it would be impossible for Bubble to claim they were unaware, which again, a halfway decent lawyer would likely be able to claim gross negligence on their part for not having addressed them prior to a sale so as to provide prospective buyers realistic figures.
No corporate entity will want to be left holding the hot potato once all these AI built MVPs start incurring extreme WU usage bills or worst, experience being overcharged due to bugs in WUs…could you imagine how that would look, “you mean to tell me your company has an AI that builds the apps for the user, you charge the user based on a pricing model that has known bugs, and certain approaches to building can lead to higher costs for the same result, and your AI didn’t build optimally in regards to the usage metrics of the pricing model?”
Any existing user of Bubble should want to see them succeed, because overall the product and service they provide is incredible, so who would want to see that go away? Because of that, all users should be persistent in their demand that Bubble fix the WU bugs, make the tooling as robust as it should have been from the beginning and commit to continuously looking into ways to improve those tools further, and ways to reduce the consumption of WUs (ie: making the codebase more efficient?) I know personally, my attempts to get WU issues addressed is because I want Bubble to succeed as a platform.
I think somebody already released something like this
If you go to ChatGPT directly, give it the link to the API docs, you’ll likely be capable of getting that put together.
What I want to see from Bubble is to focus on what they should and allow the community to build all the things to layer on top.
I don’t care if Bubble makes the platform easier to learn for new users, because I trust that if Bubble wasn’t putting out new educational content, or making little tweaks to the editor layout, the community would be, and in fact, likely better than Bubble does. Since Bubble is putting out so much educational content, it likely makes 5-10 would be educators not put out their own content since they likely see it as futile to try and attempt to compete with Bubble on views. And with that, Bubble loses (again fictional numbers here) 5-10 would be promoters…if a community member sets out to create educational content they will be putting resources into the promotion of that content, which in turn is promoting Bubble itself, so Bubble could potentially be saving resources in marketing as they would likely have more community members providing content that promotes Bubble at no expense to Bubble, not to mention saving resources on staff, interns and independent contractors they pay to create this content or make the slight changes to the editor.
I don’t care if Bubble builds an AI tool for helping to build Bubble apps, community members already have and continue to develop new ones. Let the community do it. It will lead to more innovative approaches likely, will create new businesses around it, and obviously provide more of that free promotional content for Bubble that community led endeavors do…its called “Other People’s Money”. Leverage the resources of others to advance your own success.
I’m more interested in seeing Bubble focus on addressing long standing bugs, feature requests, performance, stability, ensuring top notch support and adding tools that expand our app possibilities as these are the things the community can not do.
Since Bubble left security up to the community, look what happened. They bought out a community started company and recently another community started security tool was launched. The same should happen with AI…Bubble didn’t need to do it.
Jack of all trades, master of none.
