Happy Summer Solstice, Gliders!
Today is the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere, the official start to summer, and it’s the earliest the solstice has been in 228 years. Want to learn more? Google’s got the goods.
Here’s what’s going on this week…
Replay: Building a $1M+ software agency with no code
We had a stellar turnout to yesterday’s event with @Oscar_V88 about starting and growing a no-code development agency. There were so many questions that we had to schedule a follow-up session for extended Q&A.
Yesterday’s replay is now available. Details on the follow-up Q&A coming soon!
RSVP: No-Code NYC meetup with Glide + Slack
Learn how to extend Slack with Glide and Tightknit, no coding required.
Join us at Fabrik’s new community space in Tribeca on Thursday, June 27th at 6pm ET for a workshop with No-Code NYC, Slack’s NYC community chapter, and Tightknit.
On the agenda:
- Building custom software in Glide
- Building custom workflows in Slack
- Connecting Glide and Slack together via Tightknit
This is an excellent opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals in the no-code community. We’ll have snacks and drinks available for all attendees, too.
