IDEA: A Bubble to WeWeb Translation Guide

Thought I would just throw this out there for the WeWeb team.

One thing I like about WeWeb is it stays true to the real-world terminology that developers use rather than come up with their own terms. This is great for both existing developers who are learning WeWeb and beginners who can essentially learn to code down the road much easier.

However, because platforms like Bubble mix in their own terminology, sometimes I’ll look at elements in WeWeb and think

“Which one is the Group?”

“Which one is the Repeating Group?”

“Where is the damn Popup element?!”

It would be cool to see the WeWeb team create some kind of documentation or video that is essentially a translation guide for migrating users from Bubble to break down terminology and how to complete common Bubble tasks that might not be so obvious at first in WeWeb.

That is all!

You might want to repost it here, @Joyce fyi, sounds like a great idea)

Container or Div

Collection or Data grid

Modal

Took some playing but only a day or three before I felt like I understood the conversion fairly well

or any div/container with an array bound to the item property

It’s so much more flexible and powerful that a translation is reductive :slight_smile:
