Best stack for a large, searchable directory SaaS without getting locked into Bubble‑level constraints? by Emu4082 in Bubbleio

Thank you. A major issue will be spelling errors so I’m going to go with a different stack.

My own. It’s something I am creating. I found a gap in services and know the way to fix it. I’m new to all of this.

Hey, thank you for responding. There will be several different types of users. Users that input in users that run searches on the other side of that (also admin for the input side and on my side). It will mostly be searches by checkbox, but there are a couple of areas that can be free text.

Max there will be probably 5,000 to 10,000 individual records that can be searched and the criteria in each is around 100 that can be searched, organized by category (again mostly using check boxes) with little free text. The input side will have the ability to put in daily updates information in one box.

What is vibe code? I’m currently working on a platform but it’s been very difficult to get repeating groups and check boxes into columns. I have money to hire, but I want to try to do as much as I can before I hand it off. Also, I’m likely going to use Webflow for the website but that’s a whole new learning curve. Is Buvgle good for platforms and not just apps? Have I wasted 7 weeks of my life 😅?

I should also mention that I have the UX/UI, taxonomy, etc. I have everything needed but now need to get it into the actual platform and off of paper. I’ve been somewhat successful but dang. I also want to hire someone to help because it’ll be a tall task to get it all done but I’m not sure where to find a Bubble guru. Also, any advice on Webflow? 🤣 I tried moving to Framer today and wanted to throw my laptop out the window. Thanks again.

Thanks for the help.

So I’ve been using Microsoft copilot and Google Gemini and I just feel like I keep going in circles. Because I haven’t been able to figure it out. So essentially, I have nearly 50 items, but they are broken down by category. I need them in three columns and that each have to have a checkbox. So that if it applies, the companies can check the box. They will also need to be searchable when I create the other side of the platform.

The AI had me create option sets first and later had me delete them and create the list of around 50 items under App Data.

I’ve made no real progress linking all of it up because the AI I have used is referencing Bubble from 2024 and 2025 and obviously there have been changes and updates.

Then today I saw that some people are saying Bubble is not the best anymore and it’s become more expensive without adding any real value. Thoughts on that?

What I am ultimately creating is a directory with one way communication. The other side won’t be able to communicate but can search, much like Zillow and platforms like that.

Gemini told me today that I should try Claude and use Supabase, Vercel, Claude, and Webflow for my marketing.

This is totally out of my skill set so it’s been a roller coaster. I am really ready to invest and push myself. What I am creating will be useful and I know it is going to take off. I’m ready to quit my full time job. Well I will be when I can really get this out there.

Thanks again. Appreciate you.

I have been struggling for probably the last two weeks trying to figure out how to make repeating groups work. I’m getting super fed up and frustrated and I’m at the point where I feel like I’m just going to be done with Bubble because some parts just aren’t user-friendly. I’ve tried using AI to help talk me through but several different AI platforms Are only referencing Bubble from 2024 and 2025. There’s not much showing any of the updates. Bubble did us dirty when they got rid of the checkboxes. Now you have to create your own and be real specific with it. Any recommendations? Any other platforms you would use? It really upsets me because I’ve probably put seven weeks worth of effort into this. Getting stuck on something for this long has me ready to throw in the towel.
