If you aren’t familiar with Google AppSheet, it is a “no-code platform that helps you create and automate apps and workflows with Google Workspace and other data sources”.
Seems kinda wordy, but I guess that is what it can do.
One thing that differentiates AppSheet from something like Google’s Opal (another no-code application builder) is that AppSheet starts with a database. This allows you to build in a lot more functionality and complexity.
Covering everything that AppSheet can do will take this WAY outside of a quick tip so I will bring it back. The new-ish way that you can create your application is by prompting Gemini with what you want and it will do its best to create what makes sense.
This can help a lot since you may not know exactly what you want to create. You can give the fragmented idea to Gemini. And it probably won’t get it right the first time but it can fill in some of the missing pieces and you can end up with something useful.
If you have access to Google’s AppSheet, give the “Start with Gemini” option a try the next time you create something.
