Technology is moving rapidly to make itself accessible to all. Until some years ago, creating a website required technical expertise that was not so commonplace. It was a service offering then offered by many IT companies. Cut to now, there are plenty options that allow one to create their website by themselves with a few clicks. Navigating HTML and CSS syntax is no longer necessary to be able to create websites. Such options are now growing in number, latest of which is 'Bubble'. In their own words, "Bubble lets you create interactive, multi-user apps foe desktop and mobile browsers and includes all the tools you need to build a site like Facebook or Airbnb." A person by the name Vladimir Leytus actually built a clone of the Twitter platform using this tool / service. For more details, check out the below given link:
