  • 🚀 Want to build your app startup together? Check out Dreams Into Apps: www.ambitiousl...
    My name’s Alim and over the last 10 year I’ve build 12+ apps. At age 21 I co-founded SeasonShare, a B2B SaaS for sports ticketing and grew the company from an idea to $10M in revenue. Then I built PrizePicks, the #1 daily fantasy sports app in the USA.
    Throughout my career I’ve mentored 100+ early stage startups and angel invested in several.
    Now, I’m the founder of Ambitious Labs, the leading no-code app building academy in the world. We’ve trained 450+ entrepreneurs on how to launch their app ideas themselves.
    🚫 I’ve spent over $500k+ hiring developers on Upwork/Fiverr just to be ghosted and left with unusable code
    🚫 I’ve written code for 15,000+ hours.. Lost sleep, been hospitalized for stress, and suffered extreme mental health issues. TLDR: coding sucks.
    🚫 I’ve watched hundreds of founders burn their hard earned cash without validating their idea
    🚫 I’ve seen people take out new credit cards to launch an app.. Just to lose it all…
    And i do not want the same to happen to you.. Now in the area of no-code and AI, the smartest builders are
    ✅ Staying in control of their app by building it themselves using No-Code and AI
    ✅ Focusing on a lean MVP scope to avoid building something no one wants
    ✅ Following the same framework that billion dollar apps like Duolingo, Calm, Headspace, Tinder and others use to build revenue generating products
    Through my failures and wounds - I built a launching acceleration platform called Dreams Into Apps that over 450+ builders are actively using to bring their ideas to life.

    So, let me understand... If you are telling us that FlutterFlow sucks in many ways, why your company Ambitious Labs teaches FlutterFlow to its students. Shouldn't you be teaching them a tool that is actually worth their while learning? Another question... you mentioned in your video that FlutterFlow is NOT a no-code tool, but you portray FlutterFlow on the Ambitious Lab 's site as the best no-code tool, which is why you are teaching it. It seems to me that this video and what you are trying to sell on Ambitious Lab contradict each other. Could you please elaborate on this?

    Problem #1 really is only a problem if you're trying to do eCommerce or you were hoping you wouldn't have to manage your app and website workflows separately. Flutter's own web specific documentation states that for document style or rich text content, like marketing content, landing pages, blog posts, product pages, etc, that utilizing HTML based pages is best for that. I wouldn't consider this a performance issue. This is a feature limitation of Search Engine Indexing.

    I rarely click the "Dislike" button as I see it as destructive and pointless. However, for this video, unfortunately, I had to click on it.
    Point #1 (or rather argument #1) is not really a valid argument, as it is not the fault of the Flutter framework. Each tool/framework has its intended purpose, and if you do not respect that, you have no right to blame said tool/framework and/or the team behind it.
    To help the analogy, you cannot use a small SMART car to haul a mobile home trailer, and then blame the company for building n unfit car. You have simply used it for a purpose which is other than intended when the car was developed. I hope you see the point I am making!

      Yes, but if you need bluetooth for your project and FF doesn't support the basic ble communication, this is very bad. Any app builder should first support some basic stuff and then make it nicer, easier, etc. I have a PRO license and in some month I didn't even manage to get a list of connected devices and scanned devices. They say the Flutter_Blue_Plus package functions should work but later they told that they didn't test it and they also found that the first function isBluetoothEnabled didn't work in FF due to the limitations of Google!?!

      Great question. Depends. Airbnb uses SEO to index their properties using terms like “log cabin for rent in aspen”. PrizePicks, the product I previously built - did not have any SEO on the app itself because the data changes so fast, but our marketing team leveraged webflow for content heavy sites. If your app has a lot of dynamic data, likely not. If it’s static and has content people could search for, then yes.

      Previous Adalo user here. I moved from it to Flutterflow. Adalo has very poor performance, and has very big limitations on what you can do even if they say so you can. The main advantage for me in Adalo is that it is a pure Drag and Drop builder wireframe style canvas, while FF you still need to adjust locations, paddings, etc... sort of HTML/CSS style while Adalo makes it much simpler. FF has more powerful features and, things can you cannot do outside of the box you can always do code while Adalo NOT. Also the new Adalo pricing is just insane, they shot themselves in the foot.I would just use it for quick MVP/Wireframing. All my apps now are in Flutterflow.
