The Challenge
StringTheories, an online marketplace for guitar tutors, was founded by Alex Cooney, a former finance professional. The platform was designed to connect guitar students with suitable instructors in Dublin, Ireland. However, the initial development of the platform posed a significant challenge. Alex initially attempted to build the site using a traditional CMS platform, but found it inadequate for his vision. The challenge was to find a platform that could provide the flexibility and comprehensiveness required to bring his vision to life.
The Solution
Alex discovered Bubble, a no-code platform, and decided to build his app using it. Bubble offered the flexibility and customization that Alex was looking for, which he found lacking in traditional CMS platforms like WordPress. Users of StringTheories can browse through a list of guitar tutors, filter them by price and lesson type, and then arrange a lesson with the chosen tutor. The payment for the first lesson is made via the app. This solution not only provided a comprehensive platform for Alex's vision but also simplified the process of finding and booking guitar tutors for students.
