GeminiWe ship Glide apps for real clients, not just in theory.
Most Glide trainings are YouTube tutorials run by people who tested the tool the night before. At Hack'celeration it's the opposite: connecting data, structuring Big Tables, building screens, setting roles and row owners, wiring Make and n8n, publishing, that's our daily agency work. Everything we teach you, we practice on shipped apps. We know the traps (the Sheet that hits its row limit, the permissions patched on that leak data) because we've already solved them.
- We ship Glide apps for real clients every week, not just in theory
- 1-on-1 format: the trainer adapts to your level, beginner or technical
- We tell you when Glide isn't the right call (sometimes Softr or Bubble fit better)
- We start from your real data and your real project, not a dummy to-do list
Four pillars to go from your data to a live app.
A badly handled Glide means a Sheet hitting its limit, wrong screens, data leaking for lack of roles. Most of the trouble comes from the method, not the tool. We pick up your real project and work through the four pillars together.
- Connect your data
Your data connected, Sheets, Big Tables or Excel
A Glide app is only as good as its data. We connect your source: Google Sheets to start fast, Big Tables (Glide's built-in database) once you grow, or your Excel. We structure your columns, handle relations and computed columns. The classic trap: dumping everything in Sheets and hitting the row limit. We show you when to move to Big Tables before it breaks.
Connect my data - Screens and components
Clear screens, built with the right components
Glide ships dozens of layouts (list, kanban, calendar, form, detail) and components. We teach you to pick the right one per screen, bind data to fields, filter and sort per user. You build an interface that holds up on mobile and desktop, no hacks, and you understand why one component over another.
See the screens - Actions, workflows and roles
Actions that fire, access you control
A real app does things: a button that updates a row, sends an email, navigates, fires a chain of actions. We configure your actions and workflows, then roles and row owners (who sees what, who can do what). This is often where Glide apps leak data: we set clean permissions from the start, not as a patch.
See actions and roles - Glide AI, integrations and publish
Glide AI, your tools wired, and the app live
We put Glide AI to work (generate text, classify, extract from an image) on your real cases, connect your integrations (Make, n8n, Zapier, webhooks, API) and publish to a real URL, web or installable PWA. We also cover the honest limits: update quotas, data that lives on Glide. You leave with a live app, not a demo in a tab.

- A scope of your app (data, users, screens)
- The right source choice: Sheets or Big Tables
- The right 1-on-1 format for your level and type of app
- An honest take: Glide, Softr or Bubble for your case
Your Glide program, step by step.
Five steps, no skipping. Each one on your real account, with a clear deliverable. From the first session we frame your project and look at your data. By the end, you build and grow your apps without us.
- Step 1 · Project and data audit
We frame your app and look at your real data
First session, we share your screen and look at your project together. What should your app do, and for whom? What does your data look like today (a messy Sheet, an Excel, nothing yet)? We decide the source: Sheets to move fast, Big Tables if you're after volume. We scope a realistic first version and list the screens. You leave with a build plan, in order. No theory, your real project.
- Step 2 · Connect and structure your data
We wire your source and structure your tables
We tackle the foundation: the data. We connect your Google Sheet or build your Big Tables in Glide, structure your columns, relations, computed and lookup columns. We handle imports and clean up what needs it. You understand what Glide reads under the hood and when to move from Sheets to Big Tables so you don't hit the row limit. By the end, your data is clean and ready to carry an app.
- Step 3 · Build screens and components
We build your interface on your real data
We move to the screen. We pick the right layouts (list, kanban, calendar, form, detail), bind each component to your data, filter and sort per user. We care about the mobile render as much as desktop, because your users will open this on their phone. You practice on your real project, not a dummy example. You finish with an app that navigates and holds up.
- Step 4 · Actions, workflows, roles and integrations
We make the app live and wire it to the rest
This is where your app becomes a tool. We configure actions (update a row, send an email, navigate, chain them) and workflows, then roles and row owners so each person only sees what they should. We put Glide AI to work on your cases (classify, summarize, extract) and connect your integrations: Make, n8n, Zapier, webhooks, API. You finish with an app that acts and talks to your stack.
- Step 5 · Publish and autonomy
We publish, then you grow your app without us
The number one goal: you become autonomous. We publish your app to a real URL, as web or an installable PWA, test access and cover the honest limits (update quotas, data hosted on Glide). By the end of the program, you know how to structure a database, build screens, set actions and roles, and publish. You no longer need an agency to ship an app. And if you want to delegate a bigger project later, we also run a Glide agency, but that's not the point here.
Why train 1-on-1 with us.
- 300+Pros already trained on AI and no-code
More than 300 people have gone through our trainings across France and Europe. Founders, ops, field teams, indie hackers. Not vanity numbers: people who left with a Glide app live and actually used, not a demo abandoned after two screens.
- 4.7/5Rating across 334 verified reviews
Average rating of 4.7 out of 5, across 334 reviews. We won't promise Glide does it all on its own: you have to structure your data and pick the right screens. But the 1-on-1 format makes the difference when your app leaks data or hits a row limit.
- 1:1A dedicated expert, not a class of 100
You're not a number in a webinar. A trainer opens your real Glide account, looks at your app, and works through your actual project. We schedule sessions around your availability, replays included.

The questions we get the most.
What is a 1-on-1 Glide training?
An individual program with a Glide expert, not a class of 100 people. We open your real account, look at your app, and work through your actual project: connecting data, screens, actions, workflows, roles, Glide AI, integrations, publish. You ask your questions live, the trainer adapts the pace to your level. We schedule sessions around your availability, and you leave with concrete actions every time. That's what makes the difference when your app gets stuck and a YouTube tutorial isn't enough.How much does the Glide training cost?
There is no single price. We connect you with a trainer certified by Hack'celeration, matched to your need and your level. It varies from one trainer to another, based on their profile and the format that fits your project.Do I need to code to take the Glide training?
No. That's the whole point of Glide: you build your app in a visual interface, from a Google Sheet, Big Tables or an Excel, without writing code. We start from your exact level. Total beginner, we go step by step through data structuring and screen choices. More comfortable with tech, we jump straight to actions, roles, Glide AI and Make or n8n integrations. You don't code, but you understand what Glide does under the hood so you don't get stuck when things get complex.Google Sheets or Big Tables: which to choose in Glide?
It depends on your volume and needs. Google Sheets is great to start fast and keep your data visible in a spreadsheet everyone knows, but Glide caps the number of rows it reads and performance drops as the Sheet grows. Big Tables, Glide's built-in database, handles far more rows, manages relations and computed columns better, and stays fast. Generally: Sheets for a prototype or small volume, Big Tables once the app gets serious. In training we choose and, if needed, migrate together on your real case.Glide or Softr: which one to pick?
Both turn a database into a no-code app, but the angle differs. Glide is very strong for mobile apps and installable PWAs, with deep action and workflow logic, and its own database (Big Tables). Softr leans toward web portals and sites built from Airtable, with a polished web render. If you're after an app your users open on mobile daily, Glide. If you want a client web portal wired to Airtable, Softr holds up. In training we help you decide based on your real case, without pushing one tool on principle.Glide or Bubble: what's the difference?
Bubble and Glide don't play in the same league. Glide starts from your data (Sheets, Big Tables, Excel) and gives you an app quickly, especially on mobile, with a gentle learning curve. Bubble is a full-stack web builder that's far more granular: complex workflows, fine logic, free design, but the learning curve is much steeper. If you want to ship an internal tool or a data app on mobile fast, Glide. If your web product needs to become heavy and very specific, Bubble is justified. We cover both logics so you choose without regret.Can you handle roles and permissions in Glide?
Yes, and it's a point we cover thoroughly, because this is where many Glide apps leak data. We configure authentication, user roles, and above all row owners: Glide only downloads to the device the rows the user is allowed to see, which actually secures the data instead of just hiding it on screen. We set conditional screens and actions based on role. The idea: each person only sees and does what they should, by default, from the start.What is Glide AI and what is it for?
Glide AI is the set of AI features built into the tool: generate or summarize text, classify entries, extract information from an image or document, write into a column from a prompt. Concretely, you can auto-categorize incoming requests, summarize notes, or pre-fill a field. In training we wire Glide AI to your real cases, not a demo, and we also look at the costs and limits so it stays useful without blowing your quota.Can you connect Glide to Make, n8n or APIs?
Yes, and it's one of the big parts of the training. Glide connects to Make, n8n and Zapier, fires webhooks and calls external APIs through columns or actions. So you can sync your app with a CRM, send emails, notify on Slack, or push data to another tool. The idea isn't to generate an isolated app but to slot it into your real stack so it actually serves you. We build these connections together, on your project, not on a dummy example.Can a Glide app scale, and who owns the data?
Glide handles many cases very well (internal tools, light CRM, field tracking, client portals, MVPs), with honest caveats. Plans are billed partly on updates (row edits): very heavy usage can get expensive, so it's better to plan for it. Your data lives in your source (your Google Sheet stays yours) or in Big Tables, hosted on Glide: you export it, but the app itself runs in their environment. We cover these limits from the scoping stage so you choose with eyes open, and we tell you frankly when another tool would fit better.
