I can build it for you for some money. I recently created a website for a client.  
you can check it here: [https://www.imagical.store/](https://www.imagical.store/)

You can use google antigravity to build your app. It is free. You just need to write a good prompt

Type **low**  **code** or **no**  **code** app builder platform in **Google**  **search** , you should find something that can help you.

For someone with zero programming experience, these are the best free options to get started right away:

**Easiest starting points (type a description, get an app):**

- **Rork AI** — describe your app idea in plain text, get a working app in ~5 minutes: [vc.ru/ai/1917902](https://vc.ru/ai/1917902-sozdanie-prilozheniya-bez-koda-s-rork-ai)
- **Opal** — build small self-contained AI mini-apps with no code at all: HN discussion
- **Google AI Builder** (inside Google AI Studio) — completely free, zero code, backed by Google: [vc.ru/id2493498/2306657](https://vc.ru/id2493498/2306657-google-zapuskayet-ai-builder-sozdanie-ii-prilozheniy-bez-koda)

**If you want a website specifically:**

- **Vibe Builder** — generates single-page websites instantly with zero deployment hassle: HN discussion
- **Chat-based AI website builder** — just chat with it to design your site: HN discussion

**If you need automation/workflows (connecting AI to other services):**

- **n8n** — open-source, visual drag-and-drop, huge community: [vc.ru/services/1953121](https://vc.ru/services/1953121-n8n-avtomatizatsiya-protsessov-s-ii)
- **[Make.com](http://Make.com)** — beginner-friendly visual automation with scenario diagrams: [vc.ru/ai/1962053](https://vc.ru/ai/1962053-avtomatizatsiya-biznes-protsessov-s-make-com)

**Inspiration — people with zero coding experience who shipped real apps:**

- Non-coder built and launched “ASK AI” app in 30 days: HN discussion
- Zero coding experience to shipped app in 3 months (99% AI-generated): HN discussion

**Pro tip:** Start with Rork AI or Google AI Builder to get a working prototype _today_, then iterate from there. The biggest mistake beginners make is spending weeks comparing tools instead of just building something — you can always switch platforms later.

**“No programming experience” stopped being a wall in 2025 — building an app is now a _describing_ job, not a coding one.**  
🗣 describe it ▸ 🤖 AI builds it ▸ 🔁 fix one thing ▸ 🚀 publish free

💬 You type what you want in plain English → the AI writes the whole app (screens, buttons, database, login).  
🧠 The ONLY skill that matters now: describing it **screen by screen** , adding **one feature at a time**.  
⚠ Beginners don’t fail because the AI can’t build — they fail by pasting one vague sentence and quitting.

The keyboard used to need a coder. Now it just needs someone who can say what they want — clearly, one screen at a time.
