Lifting Conversions and Signups With Fomo

HelloGuru is an online course platform allowing students to learn how to create simple to complex websites and web apps and get certified in no-code tools.

Right now, HelloGuru supports Bubble.io and will soon offer courses in Webflow, Bildr, Retool, and Parabola. And that is just for their Web Development Path. Courses on building Mobile Apps and Machine Learning paths are also on the way.

Each course on HelloGuru has more than 15 hours of course content. Below is an excerpt about HelloGuru’s flagship course on Bubble, where students get to recreate Twitter.

“During this course, you will have your first introduction to learning with Bubble.io. Bubble.io is a powerful tool that will give you a huge amount of possibilities in the web development universe, going far beyond the old and tired website templates and text boxes you already know.”

“As you progress through the course, you will get to know the menus and functions Bubble provides, all while learning about the basic concepts behind what it means to build a social network: we are talking about page building —the feed, users, and profile pages, for instance—, login and sign up functionality, databases, and so much more.”

“This course consists of fourteen sections filled with very precise instructions to make a Twitter replica using Bubble. Along with these steps, you will find visual aid, as well as tips and tricks that will help you for future endeavors and projects.”

HelloGuru itself is built on the no-code platform Bubble.
