Showcase: See and Share Work
Can I build the apps I see in the Showcase myself?
Yes. On the Showcase page you can browse apps built with BanglaCodes, and pressing build it yourself drops a copy into your own account, which you can then change however you like just by asking in Bengali. You can also submit your own app to the Showcase, completely free.
The Showcase gallery
The Showcase page in the top menu is where you will find the nicest apps built with BanglaCodes. Open them up to see what is possible, and how they were put together.
Remix in one click
If you like one, press Build your own. A copy of that app lands straight in your account, and then you can change it to suit you by asking in Bengali. It is far quicker than starting from nothing, and it is the easiest way for a beginner to learn.
Submitting your own work
If your app has turned out well, press Submit to Showcase from the app panel or the Share panel. If we look at it and like it, we will put it up on the Showcase, and everyone will see it with your name on it. Good advertising, completely free.
Before you submit: what gets approved
When you submit, BanglaCodes checks the site once. If it finds a code error, a page cut off halfway, broken pictures, a sample phone number or sample text, it lists them, each with what to do. Fix it in the builder writes the fix request into the builder's box; add your real details and send it. To submit anyway you tick "I have checked everything", and the reviewer sees the list too.
To make the site better:
- Give it a real purpose: your own business, shop or work, with real names, prices and photos.
- Make the first screen say what the site is and what to do.
- Tap every button and link once, and make sure each one works.
- Leave no sample text, sample pictures or "not added yet" anywhere.
- Use a contact number, email and address that are your own.
- Publish, then open it on your own phone and look from top to bottom.
What the reviewers look for: the site is complete and every button works; it works on a phone; it is your own work with a clear purpose; it is honest, with no made-up reviews or customer counts; there are no copyrighted pictures, logos or text of someone else and nothing misleading; there is no personal or private data of anyone and nothing illegal. If it is not complete, the reviewer can send it back, and you get an email saying what to fix.
What you get in the showcase:
- A free place on banglacodes.com/showcase with your name, which opens your public page.
- The app page can appear in search engines like Google; when the site is published, search is pointed to your own address.
- The top apps of the showcase also appear on the BanglaCodes home page.
- Proof to share: the work was picked by hand. Once enough people open it, the card shows how many.
Your own public page
Everything you share collects on one page, at banglacodes.com/u/your-name. Beside each app it also shows how many people opened it.
The page is made for you already and there is nothing to switch on. If you do not like the name, change it in Settings: lowercase English letters, digits and underscore, between 3 and 20 characters.
To show your work to a client or an employer, this one link is enough.
Bonus Token for sharing
Post the ready made text from the app's Share panel to Facebook or WhatsApp. As soon as at least 3 people open your link you get 500 bonus Token. Once per app, 5 times in total.
Beginner questions
If it goes in the showcase, will people take my app?
Nobody can take your app. A remix gives them their own separate copy. Yours stays yours, and visitors still come to your link.
Does submitting mean it goes up?
No, there is a review first. Complete, polished work has the best chance.
How do I get on the weekly best list?
Nobody curates it. Whoever had the most real visitors in the last 7 days is on it. Share your link and the numbers do the talking.
