2025 Thunkable No-Code App of the Year

2025 App of the Year

Rukus Flashcards

Creator: Brooke Muse

Built using Thunkable by Brooke Muse, Rukus shows how a focused idea can go from concept to App Store without a large team or traditional software engineering. Rather than locking users into rigid lessons or forcing them to stare at chord diagrams mid-song, Rukus helps players internalize chord shapes and transitions by briefly showing diagrams and then removing them, leaving only the chord letter on screen while you play. That small design choice encourages muscle memory, smoother transitions, and more confident playing. 

Built during feeding sessions and baby naps, Brooke and Rukus reflect the best of Thunkable’s community of creators.

Turning a city into a living story

What Will You Build?

This year’s apps highlight what’s possible when people take an idea they care about and turn it into something real. From creative storytelling to practical tools and personal passion projects, these apps show how much can be built by individuals willing to experiment, learn, and iterate. Whether you’re solving a small everyday problem or bringing a long-held idea to life, there’s never been a better time to build. We’re excited to see what new creators launch in 2026.
