It’s been quite the journey this past month. We started 30 Days of Canonic at the beginning of December and over the last 4 weeks, we’ve posted a plethora of guides, tutorials, and articles. From building tools for user engagement, dashboards for all your data, complex bridges between integrations, to full-fledged apps, everything’s possible on Canonic without any code.

A month-long journey

Week 1

We kicked off the 30 Days with some of the simpler applications of Canonic. Every SaaS startup needs a few basic tertiary applications such as roadmaps and changelogs. Creating these is usually a hassle for engineering as it takes away their time from the core platform.

Canonic makes building these tools drastically simpler and quicker using low-code. With a focus on user engagement, we learned how to build public roadmaps, dynamic notifications, changelogs, and forms.

It’s available as an easy-to-clone startup toolkit on Canonic. You can learn more about it here.

Week 2

The second week was all about dashboards. In the microservices and SaaS-heavy world, a project’s data is usually fragmented across different integrations and services (Ex. invoices on Stripe, support tickets on Hubspot, etc.). Gaining data visibility is often a critical as well as a challenge.

Canonic allows you to fetch your data from across all these different integrations through a single API call. For the second week, we cover guides around how you can stitch data together to create marketing dashboards, hydrate references to data stored in your integration. We even have a guide on creating a dashboard for your Postgres database.

With support for multiple data sources, Canonic changes the way you aggregate data.

Week 3

We continue exploring the various ways Canonic can help bridge integrations and services together. A lot of times, we need bridges to interact with and react to different integrations. When working with multiple integrations, each integration API is usually different. This often becomes tedious and hard to manage.

With Canonic, you can use a mindmap-like editor to quickly build these bridges and workflows without knowing the integration API or code.

From syncing YouTube metrics with Google Sheets and Github with Asana to creating a Slack approval workflow. The week 3 guides covered a variety of different bridges. We also discuss how Canonic is different from other similar platforms such as Zapier and Integromat.

Week 4

For the final week, we culminate all the features from the previous week to build complex prototypes. Canonic is great for building MVPs. Not only does it cut down development time exponentially, but it also reduces the effort and skill required to build them thereby enabling users to get to market a lot quicker with a lot less investment.

The guides covered quite a few prototypes for this week including a ProductHunt clone, marketplace app, restaurant iOS app, and a CRM.

The entire schedule for 30 Days of Canonic along with the links to all the guides and articles can be found here. All the sample code covered in the guides is available on Github.

We are just getting started

We hope you enjoyed 30 Days of Canonic. It’s a small sneak-peek into what’s truly possible in the world of low-code and Canonic. The platform continues to improve and grows more powerful every day. We’ll be releasing more guides, articles, and tutorials regularly. Stay tuned as we disrupt backend development as we know it ⚡️.

Whether you’re just getting started with development, or you’re a code ninja, low-code platforms such as Canonic can greatly enhance and optimize your workflows so that you can spend a better chunk of your time on the better stuff!

Happy building! 🚀

We are celebrating #30DaysOfCanonic! Every day we will cover guides, how-tos, and blog posts on what you can build on Canonic. Learn More
