Hi PH community 👋 We introduced toddle as a beta product to the world back in May. Our goal was to change the way development teams work. The handover process is a productivity killer. We have one team in Figma, another in VSCode, and another that can only impact development through Jira tickets. It’s inefficient and slow. I mean, why is the best tool to build a visual web app a text editor? We identified three things that answer this question: 1️⃣ Flexibility and performance A tool should enable you to unfold your creativity and programming prowess, and it needs to render lightning fast ⚡ toddle cut the ties to limits so you can build whatever you want. toddle is now as flexible as any programming language without any performance cost. toddle is performant by default and renders fast and even better than custom code. 2️⃣ Collaboration and version control Large-scale applications require a lot of people who need to collaborate 🤝‍ toddle comes with GIT-style branches that let each programmer work on their own version without overwriting the changes made by their teammates. Branches are a must-have feature for any modern programming environment. Code or No-code. 3️⃣ Community and sharing Developers should not reinvent the wheel when they build a web app. We stand on the shoulders of giants, and NPM (the package manager for JavaScript) is a testament to that with over 1.3 Million free packages 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 toddle lets users build and share packages so the community can grow together 🚀 What’s different with toddle? ⭐ Developers see modules, designers see a canvas, but visual developers see both. We built toddle so you can create the designs you want. You should not be limited to the look and feel of default elements. We built those, but we give you the flexibility to create your own default elements. Now, designers, developers, and marketers can use the same tool. No more Jira tickets, throw-away wireframes, and wasteful requests. We need unified product teams, and it’s about time to break down the silos and ditch the text editor so we can build 10x faster 🏎️ Today is the official launch of toddle, and we can’t wait to see what you build! 🌱

@wowwowlubov Thank you! We'd love to chat with your team, if you'd like to explore this way of working.

@rick_fan thank you!
Itai Handler
I must say it looks groundbreaking 🤯
Vakis Rigas
@itaih we'd like to think so, but we'd love for you to try it so you can confirm our suspicion.

Going to give this a try, team toddle. Looks interesting.

@abhilash_chowdhary We can't wait to see what you build!

I found it quite exciting and curious to know how much impact it will have on team productivity and efficiency. Also, have you tested it with real customers?
Vakis Rigas
@ishwarjha Yes, we've had it in beta test for some time now. We have founders who have build new products from scratch. Agencies that build on behalf of clients and we are starting to see established businesses come to us when they need to refactor their code. One founder signed up and within about a month he built the product and got his first paying customer.

A no-code web app builder that relies on web standards to help you build faster. it's fluid, instinctive, collaborative, fast and offers the possibility of putting it into production without a paid plan. The team is responsive and transparent, we feel invested in the construction of their product. Go for it, you won't be disappointed!

What makes it high performance?
Jacob Kofoed
@dexbyte toddle is designed in the same way as many other modern web frameworks, such as react or solidjs to ensure the same or better performance for apps built in toddle. The development principles you'll use in toddle automatically pushes you towards building performant apps that scales to any project size. That is the short answer to a complex question. The long one involves how we render your initial app Server Side, only ship code when needed etc. I'd be happy to explain any specific details, but listing all the performance improvements in one go would be a long reply. We are constantly improving the performance, as ultimately it is a question of priority. The reason we are listing it on our frontpage is because it is a cornerstone of toddle.
Andreas Møller
@dexbyte Great question there are quite a lot of different things you need to consider when trying to improve performance of web applications. How long does it take for a page loads? how long does it take before all the elements on a page is loaded? how responsive is the application after it has loaded? and dozen more things to be aware of. We built toddle from the ground up with these issues in mind. so e.g. toddle is not built on any existing framework, because we want to keep the javascript size as low as possible. toddle is built from the start to support server-side rendering of pages, so the users gets the content as quickly as possible. To sum it up in to a short answer ( if that is not too late). We spent a lot of time making sure that toddle applications run as fast as possible, and we will keep investing time in making performance better and better :)

Wow, toddle seems like a game-changer for teams building products! I'm curious, how user-friendly is the platform for non-technical team members?
Jak Ollett
Toddle is hands down the most thrilling front-end builder I've come across. What I admire about them is their unwavering focus on nailing the essentials. The editor is unbelievably fast, it allows me bring my own data and backend, has great SEO and it's fully loaded with CSS features. They also release updates to the product continuously, have first class support for branching, and have exceptional documentation, support, and a vibrant community.
