Introduction

Build anything without code.

Bubble is a software development platform that enables anyone to build and launch fully functional web applications without writing code.

You’re reading the Bubble Manual, which has everything you need to know to build apps using Bubble. This documentation covers everything from basic concepts to advanced features and includes step-by-step tutorials, troubleshooting tips, and insights into best practices.

You can read more about Bubble's mission and our The Bubble Origin Story in our dedicated blog articles.

Using the Bubble Docs

Sections

The Bubble documentation is divided into two sections:

The User Manual

• Long-form articles for learning

• In-depth explanation of tools and concepts

• Organized by subject

• Can be read from start to finish to learn Bubble

The Core Reference

• Short, technical documentation

• Covers all properties, settings and technical details

• Organized by feature

• Can be consulted as needed for specific information

Annotations

To help you get quickly up to speed with the terminology used in Bubble and in web app development in general, we have provided explanatory notes on select words and phrases. You will find these annotations marked with a dotted underline such as this.

Clicking a phrase underlined with a dotted line reveals an annotation, and sometimes a link to learn more about the subject.

Other ways to learn

The user manual and core reference is just one part of Bubble's documentation. We also offer other ways to learn in the form of videos, interactive tutorials, demos, blog posts and forum posts. Look for the header Other ways to learn in articles to find links to other relevant resources you may find helpful.

Many articles offer multiple ways to learn a given topic. Look for the Other ways to learn header at the bottom of the article.
