But before getting into the list…
What Is 100 Days of No Code and How to Join?
The #100DaysOfNoCode challenge consists of a habit-fueled collaborative system that helps people learn to no-code with 30-minute daily lessons.

Projects That Were Born From The 100 Days Of No Code Challenge
After spending some time researching what the people built in this challenge, we built a list of some of the best products launched by founders who are members of the 100 Days of No Code community.
#1: Tool to help you stay fit
Leticia Schacht‘s first no-code app was developed during one of the most recent 100 Days of No Code bootcamps. She developed a tool to help you stay fit called Workout in your Inbox.
On the platform, users can access a curated list of YouTube workout videos. Workout instructors also can upload workouts.
However, Leticia also developed a newsletter-based community, which consists of sending customized workout playlists to members’ inboxes. Users can leave their emails on a Tally form to then receive once, twice, or three times a week an automated email sent via Mailerlite with selected workouts.
#2: App that saves passwords & notes
Umair Tariq is a mobile developer who created Protector, an app that saves passwords and notes. Umair’s next goal is to make the app generate passwords.

#7: AI web app
Michael Novotny and Marc Fletcher built an AI social bio app on Bubble. It consists of a web app that creates your social media bio (particularly for Twitter) through artificial intelligence.
Firstly, you’ll need to add a few keywords to shape your bio. Then, you’ll have to choose an influencer to inspire your AI bio. And as a final step, you’ll just have to click on “Create” to generate your bio!
For example, “I’m an indie journalist and content creator. I believe in honest, independent media and telling stories that matter. Follow me for the latest news and insights!”
In today’s post, we highlighted some of the latest projects that were developed during the 100 Days of No Code challenge and its community bootcamps. These projects demonstrate how accessible web development has become over the last few years.
The featured projects are a great step toward our goal of developing a better understanding of technology through no-code. We hope you enjoy browsing through these projects – you never know what they may inspire in you!
