#4Interesting, I don't know javascript though. In chrome I use the Automa extension, which is connecting lines with blocks (and you still have to pick up some js. I didn't even know what an 'element' was when I started). Even a beginner can do something useful after an hour of study or so. YMMV.

Nice tool. There's been some real steps forward enabling non coders to put together workflows.
Personally I would love to see a Dalle 2 for automation. Would be great to just be able to write.
1. Go to toastmaster website
2. Find next meeting
3. Check if I have selected a role
4. Send SMS
And it magically works. Ahhh maybe one day.
