CMO
I am the CMO and a partner at GoodBarber.
Through this blog, I share practical tips to help you get the most out of GoodBarber, insights into the trends shaping mobile and no-code technologies, as well as a few thoughts on the impact of artificial intelligence on our industry.
If an article sparks a question, an idea, or feedback, let’s discuss it in the comments.
You are so many to join GoodBarber everyday that we had to make this general video about GB! So, if you have ever wanted to know, in 3 minutes, what is GoodBarber, you are on the right page ;)
In this Friday talk, we discuss about some improvements added thanks to user feedbacks. We present the new features in the live section and the ability to archive a design.
In this Friday talk, we focus on optimization. We rolled out a wave of optimizations mid march, in order to load your content faster in the apps. In this video, you'll learn more about what's behind the scene and how GoodBarber is organized to help you create the most Beautiful Apps in the world ;)
In this Friday talk, get to know more about the new progress bar. The progress bar gives a visual feedback to the user when he launches the app. It tells him that data is being retrieved. This behavior occurs when it is the first time someone launches the app or when you publish an update of your app There are 2 buttons in the backend in the publication menu : Submit and Publish. Hitting submit will trigger our compiler to rebuilt your app. Then you'll have to upload your ipa file to Apple and wait for the review. You need to re-built your app each time you want to benefit from the new features of the Beautiful Apps Engine. We improve it every tuesday. Hitting publish will update you app the easy way. If you add a section, you change your design, well, when you make your app evolve, no need to rebuilt it. It can be updated on the fly. So, this is why we made the progress bar. It's here to tell the user, hey, updating is in progress. Hold on, fresh content and fresh design are coming.

Very busy day 2 at Mobile World Congress. Day 2 and day 3 are said to be the most intense of the event ... and, well, this is true. We met a lot of people today : VCs, potential partners, complementary services and of course, leads :) Not so much time to give you a feedback of what's hot in MWC2013, but we'll try tomorrow.
Since this morning, we have met a lot of people. Each time, they give us great ideas to improve GoodBarber. If it's true that we are not experts of the radio ecosystem, there are great chance that will become killers and the end of Le Radio! Just one evidence: we are "nominé" for the On'R awards. Here are some pictures of Le Radio :)
GoodBarber has developped 25 connectors (and counting) to retrieve your articles, photos, videos, events, sounds, tweets, …well, you get the idea :) Use them to put all your content at your users's fingertips. The idea is simple. From your backend, different sections can be created in your app. Each section corresponds to a type of content. Behind each section is linked a source. Here is the list of the supported external services. Keep in mind that this list is growing.
Great news today. The first iPhone app powered by the Beautiful Apps Engine is available in the App Store. This the app of WMaker, our mother company. This is just the beginning. More to come in a few days.
With GoodBarber, everybody can create Beautiful Apps. But, being able to provide a software empowering everybody to create a Beautiful App is a long and ambushed way. Our technical team is composed by passionate people. Talented mobile developers, experienced network and system engineers, mighty web developers. To build and run GoodBarber, everyday we have to solve complex problems, mainly due to the industrial trait of our product. GoodBarber powers millions of apps, installed, updated, and used all day long. We would like to share with you - the geek ones ;) - the solutions we find in order to face the issues we come across every day. Every article published under the "Engineering" serie will deal with an accurate topic regarding iOS, Android, Python, etc.. It could also talk about a generic process that was set up to maintain GoodBarber's industrial trait. In this blog, over time, and each time we can do it, we will try to explain what's behind the scene and share GoodBarber's bag of tricks. Stay tuned!
Bloggers, this theme is for you. Use it to unify your web presence. It was especially crafted for those publishing a high volume of content : news, videos, photos, podcasts, etc. Looking at the root view, you see that our designer chose a tab bar for the navigation. But you notice that Blow has also a sub-navigation, with a "circle band", at the top of the screen. Very useful to offer a clear navigation among a lot of content. In the detailed view, the tool bar is at the bottom. Select the option you want to propose. In this exemple, comments, sharing, font size and add to faves are enable. Blow is one of the 50+ themes available in your GoodBarber backend. Use it as a starting point to create your Beautiful App .
