If you wanted to learn more about Bubble, you should take these courses. Lachlan is a very effective instructor that clearly communicates each step of the way. Each video is focused on specific topics and the course is easy to follow.

- Michael Lee, Senior Product Designer

Great overview that takes you from a blank page to complete MVP. Perfect length and amount of detail to set you up well and put you on the right path. Highly recommended!

- Harry Brown, Founder of Dream Day

Really great courses to actually get up and building with Bubble. Lachlan doesn’t waste a lot of time with “fluff” information, just the stuff you need to know and why you need to know it. If you’re wanting to get up and building something then these are the courses you need to take.

- Marcus Byrd, Pega Developer

Clear, concise and to the point. As a noob to Bubble I was able to follow along quite easily with the course content and had my cloned app within a day. Lots of concepts learnt here I can already carry over into other projects. If you want to jump into the no-code space, this is a great place to start”
