Congrats! You’ve done the hardest part by committing and showing up to learn.

Context📄

An audio-to-text note-taking app is a tool that converts spoken words into written text, efficiently capturing and organising your thoughts. It’s like having a personal assistant that jots down everything you say, making sure no brilliant idea or important detail slips away.
With an easily-accessible tool like this, you’ll always have an efficient method of documenting your ideas and streams of consciousness and being able to easily retrieve them later. This could be useful for work and personal projects, as a method of self-reflection or just as a useful tool to experiment with when experiencing writer’s block.
Perhaps an audio-to-text note-taking app could also be a useful tool to use on future reflection days?
 
🔥 In this lesson you’ll learn:
  • The basics of Glide's app builder interface.
  • How to integrate Glide’s AI-powered “Audio to text” functionality to create a dynamic note-taking application.
  • You'll also gain a deeper understanding of no-code development and the principles of data management. By working with Glide, you'll learn about the basics of app interfaces and user experience design.
 

Let's Prep 🥗

What’s Glide?
Glide makes it easy to create custom apps on top of your existing data, no advanced technical expertise required:
1. Sync with existing data sources like spreadsheets, a SQL database or build your data source from scratch. 2. Use the drag-and-drop Glide builder to create custom interfaces. 3. Add functionality with computed data, AI, and integrations. 4. Securely share your Glide apps with granular control over access and permissions.
 
What can you build in Glide?
With Glide, you can build a wide range of applications, from personal productivity tools to complex business solutions. This includes project management tools, event planners, inventory trackers, and even personal finance managers.
Glide’s core concept.
Glide's core concept revolves around the use of 'Components.' These are pre-built elements that you can add to your app, such as lists, buttons, images, and charts. They are akin to digital Legos, where each component can be customized and combined to build the structure and look of your app.
