New Glide. New homepage. @glideapps 🏗️
glideapps.com/
hosting + db + workflows in one prompt 💆
we just shipped the Glide MCP
connect Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor to @glideapps and build on the agent subscription you already pay for
ask your agent to:
> ship an app, Glide hosts it
>query live business data
>build an automation and leave it running
>pull your files and connectors in as build context
your agent already knows your work.
Glide adds the platform underneath: hosting, database, permissions, workflows
your teammate can pick up the same app in a different agent tomorrow. the apps, data, and permissions never leave Glide
bring your agent. keep the software 🤝
If you're a designer not sure about how to contribute to the main repos, start by creating a DESIGN.md file to document the design system and key patterns.
Instant quality boost, and a great way to uncover more design opportunities.
Spreadsheets are the best 💚
I wish I could have peeked into @maxvoltar 's process when the first @gowalla website came out back in the day 🥹

New datatype icons dropped in @glideapps today, with more careful use of color. Inspired by some of our favorite technical tools. Classic computations have a teal accent, and AI is brain-colored (not pink!).
*Working* AI generated components.
Exciting times.
The best AI demo you'll see this week 😉 Our @glideapps AI component is subtle but effective, and we're just starting to trial it with customers. Thousands of production apps will use these components by EOY.
